Leg lifter and positioner
Pippa has a paralysed left leg and needs to position her foot before standing.
The lifter has a knee height handle at the top of an aluminium tube, with a shoewidth spur at the lower end. It also has a hook to carry it on a walking aid.
Pippa can lift and shift her foot to the best position for standing provided she is wearing shoes with low heels. She could not get the spur under flat-soled moccasins.
