With this shaver holder composed of a piece of foamed material with hole, available in handicraft shops, coated with non-slip reel of the company
Dycem, many people with restricted motor functions can shave themselves again.

Always shave well, or let yourself shave:
With a full beard it’s likely to entangle in the driving wheels of the wheelchair!

Everybody who knew me before my accident knows that I have been a rather

My colleagues had sympathy with my situation and constructed this special opener type:

ASIFLENGHTISNOTIMPORTANT!

The opener is also excellently suitable as extension for Allen wrenches if the screws on the wheelchair are lose again.

We quadriplegics almost all have difficulties with the motor function of our fingers.

you can open bottles and jars without problems.

If you also put a non-slip mat under it the bottle can be opened with one arm almost without any power.

The caps are produced by the company Dycem and I consider them ingenious.
