Assistive technology is ‘the stuff that can make it easier for you to do stuff’. It isn’t just for the elderly or disabled – it can be helpful for everybody at any level of ability.
Join us for this webinar and learn how assistive technology can preserve independence; reduce hospital admissions by making people safer at home; prevent falls; help carers; maintain our health and community involvement; and improve our quality of life.

- What are assistive aids
- How they can help protect your joints and reduce pain
- Tips on making your daily activities simpler
- Use of aids and equipment in and around your homePresented by Julie Wakeman – Sound and Occupational Therapist
