At the @Kidztoadultz exhibition, we finally found long-handled cutlery on sale!! We had some of these many years ago, then we could no longer source them…but we’ve found them again!
For those with restricted arm movements, it can be tricky to maintain independence with eating, and many people with FOP have ingeniously crafted their own silverware with forks, a stick and tape. But now there’s a stylish option!
From Active Hands, there is a bendable fork, spoon and knife available, full size for an adult, available in red or grey. We love them! For those interested, you can find them here: https://www.activehands.com/product/bendable-cutlery
They also ship worldwide! Hope this helps!
