Hello lovely community!
What’s been your best gadget for being at home? Hubby has total right-sided weakness (alas, his dominant side 
) and so I’m looking into random items like one-handed toilet roll holders (which NO ONE seems to make for less that £100!)
What’s been your best sanity-saver for one-handed people post-stroke?
Cheers
Imogen
Very difficult to choose. Probably my kitchen scissors which can be used for:
opening packaging
cutting up meat for meal prep
cutlery to eat my dinner
I am also very fond of my collection of one-handed pepper mills.
I have a lot of one-handed kitchen gadgets which I could list.
I could explain how to put on a bra one-handed, but that may or may not be of use to your husband. It might be more useful to loo up one-handed shoelaces.
Piece of string to go around my neck ; can hook my kindle onto it or clip things on to carry them around with me. I only have 1 hand that can feel, and that’s got a walking stick in it. Lately I’ve been much better though, and am using no stick, 2 hands and 2 legs.
good luck, Roland
Look up tools for one handed person.
Also research useful tips for amputees, you’ll learn a lot from them 
One handed pepper mills?! Awesome - thanks for the tips 
Glad you’re getting more movement Roland - great news! I knew the community would have some fab ideas 
What would your husband like to do? I have gadgets for knitting, gardening, cooking, playing cards.

Janet could you please list your favourite Kitchen aids? I’ve just lost my ‘carer’ (unofficial) who was a huge help to me when ever I had the courage to wobble around my kitchen. I am now seriously worried about how I’m going to prepare cook and eat food. I REALLY don’t want to be doing this right now but feel I may have to hammer Amazon with my PIP before I have to justify/use vouchers before every penny I spend.
I do have perching stools and a pressure cooker/airfryer combo that at least helps in preventing falls and burns standing in front of a cooker., my balance is shot and my left hand fairly useless with limited coordination and highly reduced sensation/feedback from that entire side… I’ve never cut a vegetable or a bit of cheese without wondering why it is covered in blood 
My difficulties are mainly around the actual food prep and staying on my feet
I can mainly stay on my feet or I sit at the table.
Scissors - cutting up meat.
Belli-clamp - holds jars, cans in plce for opening
Combined spike board and bread butterer - holds veg in place for peeling and cutting up, allows bread to be held in place for buttering
One handed can opener, although mot now have ring pulls.
A mini chopper food processor which I use to chop vegetables and cheese in place of a grater
A box grater for cheese
I have acquired these over the years and have probably forgotten some. If there is something you struggle with let me know and I’ll tell you how I do it.

Thankyou Janet that is absolutely brilliant.
Also thankyou Simon. You always give great advice to anybody that asks I did try googling ‘disability aids’ but it showed a lot of stuff like perching stools which I already have
Hi Imogen
Special chopping board from community rehab.
Elasticated shoelaces
Grab stick
Trolley
Hi Janet
Do you know where you got the grater. I need one that can stay in place while i grate with good hand.
Cheers
My father-in-law gets Wiltshire farm foods meal as he can no longer cook for himself (not the result of stroke) they seem good quality with large print instructions, always got a few in the freezer as back up.
I don’t remember, but you can get them at Argos and Amazon. Mine has a grater that is the lid of a box so that the grated material falls into the box. I hold it against my body while I grate or you could place it on a nonslip mat or in your new belliclamp.

I know someone on here uses one of these kitchen workstations, either @Bobbi or @mrfrederickson. Just can’t find the link to their post. But now I’ve tagged them in they might come along with a few more tips.
Don’t know how this link will appear, I hate using my phone for this sort of thing, give me a computer any day…just so limiting 
Yeh, I can’t see any of your images here
And yes, I do have it running in mobile mode.
Its more my lack of user ability thats the problem. Just wanting to quote a section from an above post is a frustrating failure to highlight. And I do try several times before I give up. And my fingers are forever touching things on the very sensitive touchscreen that I don’t want or sends me off to goodness knows where on the sight, and trying to do a search…don’t get me started 
I’m good if I can keep it short and simple on the mobile. But anything more complex is time consuming, frustrating and draining.
Hopefully my PM gave you the link to my post if not
Search on cheese and pickle
You just gonna adle my brain some more. The question I’m asking myself is, do i really need to know 
Hey but I’m nailing it with copying and pasting linked addresses
