What’s that for? A guide to equipment and adaptations

If you are newly coming to terms with the confusing world of disability equipment (or even if you are quite experienced!), APR has introduced a new guide to the types of equipment and adaptations frequently found in homes and holiday accommodation.

Each item of equipment is illustrated with a photograph, so if you are not quite sure what we mean by 'profiling bed', or 'tracking ceiling hoist' there is now an easy way to find out. Even if you are familiar with disability equipment, you might still find the guide useful and it could be an easy way of finding just the solution that you are looking for.

We will be adding to this guide as time goes on and we would very much welcome suggestions as to additional items that you feel it would be useful for us to include. The guide can be viewed via the following link:
