Maggie has a feeding tube that presents a daily challenge. She suffers from Ataxia which affects her hands and the equipment is too difficult for her to use by herself. She relies on her husband a number of times a day.
University of Brighton design students worked closely with Maggie to identify and make a tube cap remover she can use by herself. They also designed a protective pouch that fits her body size. Maggie is now able to use the feeder tube independently and feels more comfortable wearing the pouch. She says: "this has been such an enormous help to my particular condition and has helped me manage to get my life back on a normal track"
