This page is going to be full of useful information and contacts. At the moment it is the only page on the site that will be added to regularly as people request more information. Currently it will have local information from where I am from but I will add information from further afield when more people need or want it, once the site is fully established.

ENQUIRIES
DID YOU KNOW?
You are not allowed to read your own medical notes without permission from your doctor.
You don't need your doctor to refer you to an occupational therapist or physiotherapist etc.
Useful items
A larger tablet dispenser from amazon, bigger than the normal tablet dispenser so very helpful for all the medication we take. Lots more room.
When it comes to grab rails always go through your occupational therapist as many grab rails over the counter can lose suction over time and can cause accidents.
