Savvy options for safer bath times

-

A WALK-IN shower is a savvy solution when looking to maximise space in the bathroom. It can take up less room than a tub, making the use of mobility aids easier, for example. Fold-away seating and a grab bar provide support and reduce the risk of falling.

A WALK-IN bath also saves on floor space, as most designs are twice as high and half as long as a standard bath. The built-in seat makes bathing comfortabl­e and safer. And you can choose options such as chromother­apy lighting or a hydrothera­py spa system.

A WALL-MOUNTED bath belt, fitted in an hour, allows you to take an effort-free bath without the need for major alteration­s. Just sit on the belt (pictured) and you will be gently lowered right to the bottom of the bath. After soaking in the tub, press the button and you will be lifted up again, making it easy to get out.
