What is a home trolley and why should you use one?

A home trolley (sometimes called a kitchen trolley) is a lightweight wheeled trolley used to help you transport small items around the home.
If you, or someone you care for, are finding it difficult to carry out daily tasks in the home, like light cleaning, transporting laundry, or carrying food and drinks from one room to another, you may want to think about using a home trolley.
You could be finding the tasks mentioned above difficult for several reasons including:
What not to do!
It is very important that you do not use a home trolley in place of a walking frame or rollator as there are no brakes to prevent it rolling if you are unsteady on your feet.

Things to consider
- Is your flooring level enough? The thresholds between your rooms must be level in order to use a home trolley safely.
- Do you live alone? A home trolley will help you to remain independent, by making it easier for you to carry out small tasks around the home, such as cooking and cleaning.
- Do you get tired easily? Using a home trolley to easily transport items between rooms will reduce the amount of journeys you make, ensuring lower levels of fatigue and preventing the risk of falls.
