Some of our walking sticks have been designed solely for use by persons who are disabled or chronically sick.

HM Revenue & Customs rules allow these items to be zero-rated for VAT and purchased by the customer at a VAT exclusive price as long as they are purchased by or for a disabled or chronically sick person. The goods must also be for personal or domestic use only and must be applicable to that person's disability or sickness.
