The challenge

A severely disabled man had difficulty in moving his oxygen bottles around the home, often resulting in the bottle being knocked over.

A lightweight wooden shopping trolley with a stable base and a recess to take the base of the oxygen bottle was made. It has an adjustable securing strap for the taller bottles sometimes supplied. The trolley remains in a vertical position when in use, the wide base making it difficult to knock over the bottle accidentally.

The oxygen bottles can now be moved around the home much more easily.
