For effective support in the home or out and about, a walking frame can be a real boon. Some are simple fixed walking frames which are lightweight and can easily be moved, but give a rigid and reliable support for their user. Other walking frames are fitted with wheels and these are usually fitted with either cable brakes or downward pressure braking mechanism, ideal for improved control for a stooped walking position. With the right walking frame you can be mobile again and confidently shop with the minimum of assistance and rediscover old hobbies and interests. With a walking frame you have greater freedom around your home and can spend more time with family and friends without the worry of how to move about easily.
