Adaptive clothing donations

A local charity, Embracing Age, is putting together clothing packs for care-home residents in need. It is requesting donations of adaptive clothing and other articles that are easy to take on and off, in good condition for both men and women. Adaptive clothing has features that make it easier to put on, such as concealed snap fasteners or velcro strips instead of buttons, and large openings that are more suitable for people with reduced mobility. This simplifies dressing, especially when sitting or lying down. Items needed include:

• Trousers
• Skirts
• Nightwear
• Blouses
• Shirts
• Cardigans

If you are able to make a donation please call Mary on 07757 450 951 or email mary@embracingage.org.uk to arrange a Covid-safe collection.
