It is with dismay that I continuously learn about the lack of non-accessible homes around the world, even to the extent described by Lauren in a previous blog post titled “Accessible Homes”. What a tragedy that today, developers and designers still plan and build inaccessible homes, buildings and public spaces. It simply does not make sense! I won’t be the only one who questions whether they are really thinking about their current and future customers as they should. It also causes those with additional needs to doubt whether they could truly meet their access requirements, even with prior education and planning.

The demographic of ageing populations is a scary prospect, as we are ageing in far greater numbers than other any time in history. Medical technology is also continually advancing, meaning there is a larger number of people living with disabilities within today’s population. Yet modern bathrooms are generally not constructed with these users in mind. Luckily for people with reduced mobility, for the past 13-years, Showerbuddy has been developing and producing a range of wonderful products to solve these in-home access problems.
