Does anyone know where I can buy a good sturdy walking stick for a mature gent who needs some support ?
If possible in the North although could go over the South or indeed if anyone has one to sell .

The medical shops seem to have a good selection of sturdy sticks (metal and adjustable) Try the one that is on the RHS just before you get to the Bellapais lights. OR on the LHS just after you go through the Bellapais lights depending which way you approach it. Some of the places like 1001 etc have them, but I would suggest you go to the medical shop. (can't for the life of me think what is called though, sorry)

Sophie: Do you know if the medical shop stocks collapsable sticks (I mean ones that fold up when you want them to!). I need a stick for distances, rough ground and steps, but it can be an embarrassment (and a danger to others!) indoors and it would be nice to have one that could be folded up and put in a handbag.

btw Cheshire Homes loan sticks and other walking aids for a donation, if the need is temporary.

The medical shop is Gokmec or similar, opposite Dano bakery. At traffic lights heading towards the new harbour and Pia Bella hotel, it on the LHS.

Ragged Robin the fold up walking sticks are only £2.00 here in UK I am not there until December but if you haven't got one by then PM me I will bring one out and leave it somewhere in Ozankoy for you to pick up maybe the bookshop. (Think you are in Ozankoy)

Woodspeckie: Thanks, that really kind. I will have a look around, but I dont get out much, so if no sucess wil contact you about Nov. Yes, Ozankoy and Bookshop would be idea.

Sheiloblige: Many thanks for offer; but in view of above unless "reasonable" is under £2 and very local will wait for the UK one.

Cyrob: Hope you find what you are looking for.
