Based on a conversation elsewhere, I wondered whether it was worth a thread about equipment people have found helpful. I guess I am particularly thinking about mobility issues - but anything is fair game.
Here are my initial thoughts... I might add something else later. Feel free to reply to add anything you find/found useful.

Getting around and in and out of the house
We replaced our front and back doormats with non-slip half steps to help her getting in and out of the house: https://www.argos.co.uk/product/5728552
I did also fit c couple of grab rails at the top of the stairs. Though it wasn't long before OT came out and fitted a load more. I think I bought these ones: https://www.amazon.co.uk/NRS-Healthcare-F19467-Plastic-Fluted/dp/B00A7ULJ7Q
Shower
We bought a cheap shower stool from Amazon - which was excellent for a few months and then OT installed one on the wall - which was a little too big for our enclosure - but was very sturdy. Here is the one I bought (also disassembled nicely and just fit in the suitcase for holidays): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Drive-Lightweight-Height-Adjustable-Rounded/dp/B008CFSUS4
I think all showers should have grab rails. We're none of us getting any younger. We bought this beefy thing: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kamanan-Handles-L-Shaped-Handrail-Bathroom/dp/B0C2TDFKTG
Bed
We bought a bed lever which helped Fi as her core strength was going so she could use her arms better to get in and out of bed. Though you probably need an OT to advise where to position it.

Personal alarm
This was something I discovered several months later than we needed it. Basically a wireless doorbell with pendant buttons that you can hang round your neck. I put the doorbell button on the wall where Fi slept and she wore the pendant during the day. Sounders upstairs and downstairs meant that I could always get to her. Did she occasionally use it to terrorise me, you ask? You bet.

Also... Fi's confidence was shot to pieces after one of her hospital stays. This was really useful for about four months to give her the confidence to feel she could go for short walks on her own and still summon help when she needed it. It's an emergency cell phone in a watch. We used it with cause on a few occasions (and accidentally on quite a few occasions). They were good at answering the phone (Fi used to accidentally call them a couple of times a week) - and they were very understanding and helpful. Not super cheap - but really valuable for giving Fi some independence back. https://www.yourstride.com/personal-alarm-watch/
Great stuff Pete. This is all very fresh in my mind from OT visit last week so in addition to the above:
Personal alarm
After a lot of deliberation I went with this one as it has an app so wherever you are it alerts you on the phone. This means I can go in the garden without worrying I won't hear an alarm.
Webcam
Again a piece of mind thing. There's loads out there that are all pretty similar. Jilly sleeps downstairs so when I wake up I can quickly check if she's awake yet and hat she hasn't fallen or anything. This one also allows audio so we can speak to each other through it.

Walker
Before surgery the tumour had already impacted Jilly's mobility so borrowed a walker from my mum which greatly helped with going for walks. It's quite a fancy one with big rubber wheels but has been worth it's weight in gold. Initially she struggled a bit with the emotional side of having to use it but now it goes everyone with us. If we take it to a garden centre it gets a lot of admiring glances

A mobility centre will have much cheaper options.
Perching stool
We got one of these from the OTs which helps with kitchen jobs like chopping veg as Jilly can't stand for too long.
Toilet seat
If you've had kids then this is similar to what you might use when toilet training except it's obviously bigger and just raises the seat a few inches which helps with standing up again. Again from OT so no link.
Adjustable Bed
Jilly was really struggling with pressure in her head early on and after surgery so I looked around and found one of these for £50 on Gumtree. Ideally an OT would advise but I was panicking a bit at this stage. This means she can sleep with her head raised but it also really helps with the mobility side of things so that she doesn't have to try and sit up in bed to get get out.
