    Hi there, I would ask your gp to refer you to community care or physios. There may be some aids that would help. I hope you find what you need, don't struggle. I found that once you were in the system there was a lot of help available x

  • Hello the community physio/occupational health team will need to do an assessment and see exactly what the problem is so that they will find a solution. ...have a chat with the GP unless you have community nurses in place they or GP  can do the referral. It's amazing the bits of equipment they can bring round. ...sometimes they bring it with them so you can use it straight away. 

    Good luck and hope this is helpful.
