Warning: For safety reasons, RNIB recommends you seek an assessment and training from a qualified mobility instructor before purchasing a cane.
Available in two sizes: 65-127cm, and 78-148cm. Each is infinitely adjustable over its full extended range by a quick turn of the shaft. Ideal for growing children.
Supplied with a thread-style ceramic 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).
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).
