Solutions for Independent Living

Age or illness can affect mobility, and as a result even the most basic of daily tasks can become more and more difficult. Living Needs recognises that many people affected by mobility issues would prefer to remain in their own homes as long as possible, and therefore we have a dedicated team offering solutions to help you maintain your independence.

One of the first areas of difficulty can be getting in and out of the bath, and therefore we offer a range of solutions from simple grab rails and bath lifts, to replacing the bath with a level access shower complete with shower seat and thermostatic shower. Our installers are all specially trained to ensure that all work is carried out with the minimum of disruption to your daily routine and you can rest assured of fully warranted work from a team you can trust.

If the stairs are also proving to be tricky, Living Needs also offers a superior stair lift service. Often seen as a costly installation, on display in the Living Needs showroom is the Minivator Simplicity stairlift which can be fitted from as little as £1350.00.

In addition, if you’re a wheelchair or mobility scooter user and you’re finding that entry to your property is proving difficult – perhaps there are steps to negotiate or narrow doors – Living Needs also offers a range of access solutions including ramps, exterior railings and door widening.

If you would like to talk to Living Needs about any of our services, please call 01271 374600 or visit our showroom at 1 Mill Road, Barnstaple open Monday – Friday, 9am-5pm, and we’ll try our best to find a solution to your needs. And don’t forget, we offer a free, no obligation, home survey!
