Weighted cutlery
The Weighted BIG-GRIP Spoon has a weighted handle, making it a little more than twice the weight of the standard BIG-GRIP Spoon. The additional weight makes the spoon much easier to control for people with a range of conditions, especially users suffering from tremors or more restricted hand control.
Ergonomic cutlery
As part of our range of caring cutlery to help build confidence and independence in the kitchen and at meal times. We have a range of ergonomic cutlery, like foam-handled cutlery, to make gripping utensils much easier while eating. The chunky, yet lightweight nature of the handles means they are ideal for those with a weak or painful grip.
Caring cutlery for adults
Our range of caring cutlery involves a wide scope of products, including a wrist strap that allows the user to hold onto the utensil even when their grip fails them. This helps to boost independence, ensuring that you, or a loved one, doesn't need assistance during meal times.
What is caring cutlery, and how does it differ from regular cutlery?

Who can benefit from using caring cutlery?
Caring cutlery benefits those with conditions like arthritis, Parkinson's disease, stroke, or cognitive impairments. It also helps elderly individuals or those recovering from injuries by improving grip, and stability, and reducing the risk of spills.
What are the advantages of using caring cutlery?
