Based out of stores in Ulverston and Maryport, the Cumbria County Council Community Equipment Service helps people to retain their independence and have more control over their lives. A wide range of equipment is available to help the local population, including:
- simple equipment, such as bath boards which sit across a bath, grab rails around the house, raised toilet seats, chair raisers, etc.;
- specialist equipment, such as bath lifts, hoists, pressure cushions and mattresses, etc.
