Does anyone need some used home care equipment?

2 Replies

My wife died of CBD a couple of years ago and I have a number of small items of equipment I used when caring for her in the last weeks of her life (baby alarm, cutlery, voice amplifier, etc). I would happily give these to anyone who might find them useful and who could collect them from me in Taunton.

That is a generous offer. After my husband died I gave supplies and a fair amount of equipment which could not be returned to the local hospice. So if you don’t get any takers this may be worth considering, or if there is a local stroke /aphasia group they may also welcome the equipment.

Hope you find homes for it all.

Thanks Tippy. That’s a good suggestion and my wife did die in the local hospice where she was well cared for.

Not what you're looking for?
