Warning: For safety reasons, RNIB recommends you seek an assessment and training from a qualified mobility instructor before purchasing a cane.

Fitted with the CordLock device, which securely holds the internal elastic in place while you change the tip.

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).

Please ensure that this product is suitable for your needs before purchasing. If you live near one of our Products and Advice Centres, we encourage you to visit so you can test a range of canes in person. Please contact us ahead of your visit so we can make sure your preferred cane is available for you to try.

If you’d like advice on the right cane for your needs, or to arrange cane training for yourself or a relative, please contact your local society or Social Services team for assistance. Contact our Helpline for help finding your local service, or go online at Sightline Directory.

If you wish to return a cane or mobility device within 14 days because it is unsuitable, the product must be returned in pristine, unused condition.

Please do not return canes or other mobility items that have been used, marked, or show signs of wear, as these cannot be refunded. We recommend trying your cane indoors, on a clean surface until you are sure you want to keep it.

Items that are returned in a used condition will not be refunded and, unfortunately, we cannot return the original item to you once it has been sent to our warehouse.

Important

  • Long canes should only be used by people who have received appropriate training from a specialist qualified professional, in order to attain a high level of safe and independent travel. Long canes are not to be used for supporting a person's body weight.
  • When choosing the length of your cane, standard advice is that a long cane should reach between the user's sternum (breastbone) and under the chin, when the user is standing upright and the cane tip is touching the ground between their legs. However, the length and speed of walking stride will also affect the length of the cane required.
  • Please note: 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).

  • Length: 105cm (54 inches) to 150cm (60 inches).
  • Rolling ball tip – hook style (MP43).
  • Four or six sections.
  • Standard black rubber 10-inch grip.
  • Fitted with Cordlock device.
  • Conical joints.
  • Material: Graphite.
  • Approximate weight: 317g.
