Hi, check out local hardware shops and cheap shops first-they sell ‘hook and loop’ tape,often for very cheap-I buy my own Big roll from a local hardware shop for £1.99,you get a lot for your money but on places like eBay they charge a lot.

if he has a speech and language therapist they usually have a lot of it as well as part of the job.

my SLT offers it When she’s given me new PECS,but I use my own if I’ve got any to save on them having to order more.

Make sure the hook and loop tape is stick on and not sew on, I have made that mistake before.

Not what you're looking for?
