We are a leading UK supplier of mobility aids for the elderly & disabled – promoting independence and making daily living easier

Home should be somewhere you feel comfortable, confident and independent. But as we get older, everyday things around the home can sometimes become more difficult to manage, from navigating stairs and getting in and out of the bath to reaching items in kitchen cupboards.

The good news is that creating a safer home does not necessarily mean making major changes. Small adjustments, household gadgets and a little forward planning can make everyday tasks easier and help reduce the risk of accidents.

With a government-commissioned review of transport accessibility law underway in England and Wales, our research team at Manage At Home has conducted an analysis to assess the state of accessible transport in the UK for 2027.

Our report compares UK towns and cities across eight key measures that influence independent travel, including average station lift repair times, the reliability of pre-booked rail assistance, step-free station access, airport accessibility, Blue Badge airport parking and drop-off concessions, accessible hospitality venues, accessible toilets, and bus satisfaction among disabled passengers.

The Gripo Pole is a pressure-mounted support system designed to help users stand, transfer in and out of bed or the bath, and move safely around the home. It can be installed in bedrooms, bathrooms, hallways and living rooms to support transfers and household mobility. The pole is secured between the floor and ceiling using specialist base and top plates, which hold the position and prevent damage to ceilings/floors.
