Gas fire control adaptation
This elderly lady found it difficult to bend over to operate the ground level gas fire control knob, putting her at great risk of falling.
A simple hand held tool, reaching from hand to control knob was made.
The lady can now adjust her gas fire setting with complete confidence, whereas before she had to choose between risking a dangerous fall and not switching the fire on or off as needed.
