Walking Aids

About

Finding the right walking aids makes a real difference to confidence and independence. Whether you are looking at mobility aids for yourself or someone you care for, our range of walking frames , rollators , walking sticks, and crutches covers every level of support. As part of our wider Mobility Aids range, these products are chosen to help you stay in your own home and move on your own terms. Walking Sticks and Crutches A walking stick is the lightest level of support. It reduces the load on one side of your body and gives you a contact point for balance. We stock adjustable-height aluminium sticks, compact folding sticks that fit in a bag, and offset-handle sticks that spread your weight more evenly. For those who need a wider base underfoot, a quad stick has four rubber feet and stands on its own when you let go. Standard and Folding Walking Sticks Standard walking sticks suit everyday use around the home and out in the community. Folding sticks pack down quickly for shopping trips or travel. Most adjust to your height in seconds. A walking stick is often the first aid people reach for, and for good reason. It is light, simple, and easy to use straight away. Quad Walking Sticks Quad walking sticks have a four-point base that grips the ground when you press down. This is useful after a stroke, for anyone with weakness on one side, or when terrain is uneven. The base stays in contact with the floor as you move, giving you a steadier push-off than a single-tip stick. Check that the base is narrow enough to fit through doorways. Crutches and Forearm Supports Crutches and forearm gutter walkers take more weight off the legs and are common after surgery or injury. Standard underarm crutches suit short-term use. Forearm (elbow) crutches are more practical for long-term use as they leave your hands free when you release the grip. Gutter walkers cradle the forearms and are ideal when wrist or hand strength is limited. See also our crutches collection . Walking Frames and
