Walking sticks - sticks and crutches provide simple support

For convenient support when out and about, the Flipstick (right) is
the lightweight 21st century take on the shooting stick: just press
and perch when required. There is also a folding version that can be
carried in its own little bag.
Canes
and walking sticks don't have to be utilitarian. The elegant ladies
cane on the left has a feminine floral design.
The stylish mens walking stick on the right is a "Zebedee": it has a chrome spring which absorbs the jarring effect some people experience when their can strikes the ground.
Adjustable sticks and crutches can be altered to suit your height, and there is a choice of differently shaped grips.
A folding stick, which can be stowed in a bag when not required, is ideal if only occasional support is required.
A
shopping trolley can be a big help - especially if it's one as stylish
as this (left), which has a generous capacity as well
as good looks.
A trolley which doubles as a seat can be doubly useful on shopping trips. Stow your purchases inside, and rest on the padded top if walking becomes too tiring.
