Improve your Grip Strength - Part 2
This entry was posted in July 28, 2023Our ‘Get Fit with Ableworld’ blog series is back! After a long break we thought it was time to delve back into the world of fitness, providing the best information on how to improve health and longevity in our customers.
Previously we discussed improving the strength in our hands and arms using the Hand Grip Exerciser, a great product at strengthening overall grip strength. Now we wish to discuss a more affordable option that Ableworld offers is Theraputty, a product that achieves the same goals as the Hand Exerciser except through different methods.
How does Theraputty work?
The putty-like consistency makes it the perfect material to be pinched, kneaded, squeezed or separated, setting it a part from the Hang Grip Exerciser. These varied exercises make Theraputty a versatile tool for many people attempting to strengthen their grip.
What are the advantages to using Theraputty?
Theraputty is cost effective, creates no mess and doesn’t smell which can’t be said for similar products. It is non-toxic, greaseless, hypoallergenic and latex-free providing the most comfortable hand workout possible with less risk of skin irritation. It also features an anti-microbial component making it incredibly easy to keep the putty clean and hygienic.
Why is Theraputty important for strength?
The versatility of the product adds a new dynamic to your overall hand strength, targeting the dexterity of our hands which enables us to complete tasks without pain or struggle. As previously discussed, handgrip strength is so important to us as we age, not only is it a bio marker for our overall strength and health but it maintains our ability to lead independent lives.
Who would benefit from using Theraputty?
Perfect for those recovering from a serious hand injury, for those who have recently started to develop arthritis in their hands, or someone suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. It can even be used by people who wish to strengthen their grip strength in general to ensure they maintain it for longer. For any information on the conditions mentioned above click here.

Ableworld backs the Powered Wheelchair & Mobility Scooter (PWMS) Customer Assessment and Safety Training Scheme
This entry was posted in General July 21, 2023In a significant step towards enhancing road safety and providing a better mobility experience for users, Driving Mobility introduced the ground-breaking Powered Wheelchair and Mobility Scooter (PWMS) Customer Assessment and Safety Training Scheme. This initiative aims to create an approved and consistent method for providing appropriate mobility scooters or powerchairs to customers, ensuring their safety and compatibility with the products they use. The UK, like many other countries, has seen a steady increase in the number of mobility vehicles on its road, making this new scheme a timely and essential development.
One of the key players in the mobility industry, Ableworld, was recently invited to attend the launch event at the prestigious House of Lords. The event gathered influential figures including Baroness Tanni Grey-Thomson, renowned Paralympic athlete and advocate for accessibility; Margot Shatz from the Department for Transport, whose expertise in transport policies brought valuable insights to the table; and Raymond Hodgkinson MBE, an esteemed advocate for disabled rights and accessibility.
Margot Shatz, representing the Department for Transport, highlighted the collaborative nature of this new scheme, emphasizing how it brings together clinicians from Driving Mobility assessment centres and retailers across the mobility sector. This partnership enables retailers to combine their knowledge of products with the expertise of clinicians, ensuring that customers are matched with mobility aids that suit their capabilities and needs. This approach not only empowers users but also fosters a culture of safety and responsibility within the industry.
The Powered Wheelchair and Mobility Scooter Customer Assessment and Safety Training Scheme aligns perfectly with Ableworld's strong commitment to ethical trading practices.

By actively engaging in the PWMS Training Scheme, Ableworld is reinforcing their dedication to these core values, demonstrating that they are not simply interested in making sales but are genuinely invested in their customers' well-being.
