Second-hand equipment

Equipment, such as mobile arm supports, is often very expensive so it can be worthwhile looking at second-hand equipment.

There is a number of ways that you can sell, donate or buy second-hand equipment and the Muscular Dystrophy Campaign's factsheet provides you with more information.



Sexuality and Personal relationships

The Muscular Dystrophy Campaign has produced a factsheet with contact details for organisations that provide advice on personal relationships and sexuality.




Social Services

People with care needs and their carers (such as parents and family members) are entitled to a needs assessment by the local authority, Social Services or Social Work department.



Sport

There are a number of organisations that provide sport and leisure activities for disabled people.
