Helping HAND

GADGETS TO MAKE LIFE WITH JOINT PAIN A BIT EASIER

-

Red Handled Cutlery, from £2.95

This wider-grip cutlery, made with soft, ribbed rubber, helps when it’s painful to grip smaller, slim cutlery.

The heads of the spoons and forks can be reposition­ed, making life even easier. Occupation­al therapist Paula Widdowson says: ‘Wide-grip cutlery is a no-brainer when you’re in pain – it eases the stress on the wrists and small joint of the hands, and even the elbows and shoulder. Changing the angle of the fork head can give extra precision.’ completeca­reshop.co.uk
