Our partnership

We are proud to have partnered with Friendly Shoes. Created by an occupational therapist, these adaptive shoes help people living with Parkinson’s to stay independent.

People living with Parkinson’s have said that these shoes are “game changers”. That’s because Friendly Shoes all have wide-opening zips so they are easy to put on and take off, either for the individual or their carer.

You will receive a 10% discount on every purchase if you have Parkinson’s. Plus, for each sale, Friendly Shoes makes a donation to us.

Parkinson's and Friendly Shoes

Our shoes help people with Parkinson’s to get dressed, thanks to a number of features you won't find on other footwear.

Large, easy-to-grasp pull tabs are simple to use with tremors. Plus, all styles are incredibly lightweight to assist with leg lifting, along with large entry portals that make slipping into the shoes a breeze.

All our adult shoes are also eligible for VAT exemption, just tick the box at check-out and fill in the relevant detail.

"As someone with both Parkinson’s and dementia, my dad needed footwear to steady him on his feet, but also something that can be easily slipped on, and these are perfect! The comms and the delivery was also swift and efficient, I can’t recommend enough"

"Excellent. These trainers are perfect for someone who struggles to put shoes on.  The customer service we received was exceptional. Very quick response to email queries & couldn’t have been more helpful. They even made sure the shoes arrived quickly to take on holiday"

"Bought these for my Dad - he's got Parkinsons and shoe laces are a problem. Thought he'd resist! But they look great, and are easy to get on and off"
