That's what I was thinking too RayRay B wrote: 16 Dec 2020, 13:23Stephen, if you have a Red Cross depot near you try them. The one near us use to take that sort of equipment in then loan out to anyone in need.
Worth a try.

Re: Last One to Post Wins
They have been doing that since 1987 to my certain knowledge. As you say it is an absolute waste but oh so typical of the NHS, sadly. On that note in 2015-ish, I tried to return a pile of unopened within date very expensive pills to my Doctor, he couldn't use them but said he would send them as a gift to Russia to help them out.Stephen wrote: 16 Dec 2020, 12:36Not needed thanks.
Anyone need a pair of crutches, used once.
I was given them in hospital to bring home. I asked where I returned them once finished with and was told they can't take them back. Absolutely scandalous that these items cannot be cleaned and re-used, and the physio bod agreed. Think of the amount they must hand out on a daily basis at £30 a time. Such a waste.
Keep smiling, it's good for your well being

All hospitals according to the physio I was chatting too, as I was in a private hospital as a NHS patient.

Me too. But I like the bread toasted.
The the best scones are from M&S which we cut in half and pop in the toaster to warm and brown up a bit. A blob of butter ....mmmm, lovely
