I’m wondering if the ‘no jab’ cane is any good… has anyone tried it?! I’ve never bought a cane as they have been provided by my Sight Loss Advisor but this seems like a good idea. Maybe it might encourage me to use one more often

@sarahmatthews I have one of these no jab canes. They are really good.

You bounce back every time you walk into something, it’s especially brilliant on uneven surfaces.

I have a curved spine so my shoulder and back hurt. With his new cain it reduces the impact I get on my shoulder which is wonderful.

@PhilippaB oh, that is so great to hear! I also have chronic pain issues (in my feet) so I’m wondering if I would be less wobbly and more confident with one of these

@sarahmatthews it is one of the best things I’ve bought. I’ve used it for round about a year.

I’d say give it a go. Plus the red hand is comfy. Let us know how you get on 😊
