Stuck for ideas on what to get her this Christmas? Ditch the standard gifts for something that’ll help her maintain her independence and live her best life. Check out our gift ideas.
Designed by an Occupational Therapist, this dressing aid could be the perfect gift if she has limited mobility or can only use one hand. It goes around the neck and holds one bra strap in place while she holds the other bra strap to fasten it, giving her back her independence and self-sufficiency while dressing.
The weather outside may be frightful, but this hot water bottle will help keep her toasty warm this Christmas. It has a 1.8 litre capacity, so it stays warmer for longer, and the fur cover gives it a luxury feel and helps to protect sensitive skin. It can be used to help ease joint and muscle pain through heat, too.
If it’s cold toes leaving her uncomfortable, the classic Christmas gift of socks could be just what she needs. These thermal socks are made with advanced thermal yarn and have a long-looped cushion pile both for comfort and to keep the heat in. They’re available in black, white, or pink, so you can choose the colour she would like best.
This is a shopping trolley with a difference. It comes with a fold down seat so that if she tires while out and about doing her shopping, she can take a moment to rest and recover. Not only that but its tri-wheeled configuration means that it’s much easier to pull it up kerbs and steps. The hardwearing bag can hold up to 30kg and has a stylish stripey design.
Does she struggle with cutting her own toenails? The Long Reach Nail Scissors have a long loop handle that will allow her to cut her nails without having to bend or strain as much while still letting her cut with control.
Buttons can be especially fiddly to fasten up or undo for those with limited mobility in their hands. This button hook has a large rubber handle with flexible ribbing making it easy to grip and use.
If she’s living with dementia, the Fiddle Muff could be a wonderful gift for her to enjoy this Christmas. It’s irresistibly tactile, providing sensory stimulation, and keeps the hands and fingers moving to help ease tension and restlessness. The Fiddle Muff comes in two different styles: Denim & Cord and Button & Bead, so you choose the one you think she’d like best.
A good cup of tea can help set the world to rights, but if she’s having difficulties lifting the kettle to make one then a kettle tipper could be just what she needs. The Uccello Easy Pour Kettle and Tipper combines a 1.5 litre kettle with a tipper, so she won’t have to lift a heavy kettle of boiling water anymore.
If she struggles with bending, a shoe horn might be the ideal gift to help her with putting on her shoes. This shoe horn has a flexible end for added comfort, plus an easy-grip handle and a hanging loop for storage.
These beautifully soft, plush slippers come in a lovely shade of grey and are designed to keep her feet toasty warm as she goes about her day. They feature a thermal HeatWeaver lining to keep the heat in and have a lightweight, durable sole, meaning they are great to wear around the house in colder weather. They also use memory foam to help absorb pressure while she walks and also to mould to the shape of her foot for maximum comfort.
Available in sizes 3 – 7.
