    If you are looking to source something to help - there are various gizmos on the market - there's one on ebay for example called Sock Slider Puller Aid Kit priced at £8.45 free postage - I'm sure there'll be some on Amazon or look on the arhthritis uk website. Most disability aids are VAT free by the way.
