This symbol cane is designed to increase confidence when you’re out and about by highlighting to other people that you are blind or partially sighted. Made from lightweight, 9.5mm aluminium tubing, it weighs only about 35 per cent of an equal length mobility cane.
Available in four lengths: 70cm (three-sections); 85cm (four-sections); 100cm (four-sections); 105cm (four-sections).
Please note that in some light conditions the colour of the cane may look grey rather than white, however it is still reflective (for example, in car headlights).
Important
Symbol canes are intended to be used only to indicate sight loss. For this reason, they are not designed with the required strength to be used as mobility aids and certainly not for support.
The main purpose of a symbol cane is to draw the attention of the public to the fact that the user has a degree of sight loss.
All cane measurements are from the top of the handle to the bottom end of the tip and increase in steps of five centimetres (or two inches).
