“We highly recommend Grab A Rail. We see a large number of patients at our clinic who would like to exercise but feel unsteady on their feet or struggle with travel which makes accessibility to an exercise professional difficult. The team at Movement Therapy Clinic and in particular our Physiotherapist, Chris Tiley, have been able to use Grab A Rail to help our patients feel more confident to engage in strength training exercises at home"

Grab A Rail is strong and will therefore give user reassurance and sense of security
Non-obtrusive so in itself will not increase the risk of a fall or injury as a result of colliding with it
Versatile in terms of adaptability in length, materials and colours
Size looks optimised for easy grip
Maintains accessibility to cooker and cupboards
Could be used to bridge gaps in kitchens which are not fully fitted i.e. worktop and cupboard gaps which will be particularly problematic for some people.
Particularly the less well off who are more likely not to have a fully fitted kitchen
Could be applied to other areas e.g. workshops or garages in case of falls or to provide added stability
Physiotherapist
Grab A Rail is obviously a fantastic tool to prevent falls directly but it can also help to reduce fall in another way.
The Grab A Rail can be used to help people perform physiotherapy exercises safely at home as it provides a solid structure that can be held for support. Not only that, it can be use as an anchor a resistance band which allows exercises to be progressed safely.
Giving people a safe place to confidently exercise will help improve their balance and strength which in turn can help to reduce the incidence of falls.
