Pot holder
The humble double-sided suction soap holder, as shown in the photo, has hidden talents which can be put to good use to help the disabled. Elaine, who had the use of one arm only, experienced great difficulty in holding various kitchen utensils and crockery for cleaning.
After considering several options, none of which were practical, the aforesaid soap holder was tried and proved to be eminently successful. If the holder is submerged in the base of the sink, then pots etc can easily be pushed onto the holder single-handedly where they are then securely held during cleaning. For large utensils, additional holders can be used.
Elaine is now able to wash up with ease.
