Free: Wheelchair cup holder (Dorket Head NG5) Comes with a couple of adapters for different sizes of frame. Didn’t fit the Kuschall ultralight chair it was tried on.

Free: Computer graphics/drawing tablet working but damaged (Dorket Head NG5) Gifted Wacom USB drawing tablet for computer It’s fully working and has the pen, however the drawing surface is cracked. It’s still pretty usable and I’ve been using it like this for years - a bit of tape over the cracks helps, but the pen does catch a little bit on the crack sometimes. So I wouldn’t recommend it for artwork but it’s been fine for stuff like annotating documents and online learning or just using instead of a mouse. Has a homemade pen holder added. Or maybe someone has a compatible tablet but is missing the pen.

Free: Travel pillow neck cushion (Dorket Head NG5) Gifted Removable washable cover Beanbag like interior to mould to your neck It is supposed to vibrate but that doesn’t seem to work any more. It may be fixable but it’s a nice neck pillow for travelling even without the vibration and you can remove the battery box etc if not needed.

Free: Disability/elderly aid long handled comb (Dorket Head NG5) Long handled ergonomic grip comb for people with arm and shoulder problems to do their hair especially if they can’t lift their arm high enough for a normal comb. Good condition. It’s basically this from Amazon except only the comb

Free: iPhone 6 case and pack of screen protectors (Dorket Head NG5) Withdrawn Good quality impact resistant iPhone 6 case from Mous. It has a split on one side but doesn’t affect usage - the whole time I used it, it had the split and was fine. I currently have the same kind of case also with a similar split and it causes no issues. Comes with 4 glass screen protectors with application tool and a pack of flexible plastic film screen protectors.

Request: Taller shoe rack/storage (Dorket Head NG5) Withdrawn Looking for a taller (multi-tier) shoe rack or shoe cupboard or similar please. Doesn’t have to be as tall as the picture, that’s just to give an idea. Can collect at your convenience. Thank you.

Request: Stool/chair with swivel wheels for kitchen (Dorket Head NG5) Withdrawn Looking for a stool or basic chair on wheels if anyone has one they’d like to pass on please. I have put photos of the kind of thing I’m looking for but they’re just to give an idea - it wouldn’t have to be exactly like the pic. I’d like it for being able to move around my kitchen while seated for disability reasons, so it would be best if it was either quite high or height adjustable to reach counters etc. I’m not looking for something like a big office or gaming chair - it needs to be relatively small, easily maneouverable and easy to keep clean in a kitchen. Based in NG5, can collect from surrounding areas. Thanks for reading!

Free: TurboScrub power scrubber spares/repairs (Dorket Head NG5) Gifted **NOT WORKING** Spares/repairs I think there’s a problem with it charging. Someone might be able to fix it or it would be useful for extra brushes and spare parts if somebody has a compatible scrubber. Quite a few of the ones out there seem to use the same brush attachment. Of course you can also just use it like a normal scrubbing brush without the power function. Comes with charger, range of brushes, and extension pole.

Request: Mini leg exerciser (Dorket Head NG5) Received Hi, looking for a mini leg exerciser of the kind often marketed for elderly people please. Could be a pedal-type one or the kind that just moves your feet to help blood flow. I’ve added photos just to give the idea of what kind of thing. Based in NG5, can collect from surrounding areas and also from around NG17. Thanks for reading!

Free: Rack (Dorket Head NG5) Withdrawn White metal rack Intended for shoes but larger, heavier ones tend to fall off so would be better for smaller shoes. Or maybe someone has some other kind of use for it.

76d

Free: Fiskars paper cutter (Dorket Head NG5) Gifted Fiskars paper cutter It’s fine except the replacement cutting blades have been discontinued. There's are two used ones with it that have a bit of life left in them and can possibly be sharpened for a bit more use. I haven’t been able to source any replacements. There’s also a black scoring tool that never needs replacing meaning it can be used for accurately scoring card, paper etc even when the cutting blades are no longer any use. Good for people who do paper craft, card making etc for precise scoring (and cutting for a while).
