Useful items for for People with HMS

P.S. none of us work for lakeland and we will be adding more items as we find them, let us know or post on the suggestions place of anything you've found that helps.

Lakeland Limited have stores across the UK, you can also use mail order and order online from their website.  I have bought many products from them over the years and have found them to be a great company especially when it comes to customer service.  They have many items that I think would benefit people with hypermobile joints.  Their gadgets are great and I find  the jar gripper a great help with anyting that I can't turn such as stiff taps.  These are just a selection of products that I think that would be especially helpful.  They also sell a "Good Grips" range of utensils which have chunky handles and are easier to hold.
