Neither of us claim benefits and we bought our sticks and crutches ourselves. I would hate to think that some folk thought we were "wanting to look deserving" and therefore claiming benefits.

b) Asking how useful people find (or have experience of) likely benefits of using a walking stick to aid balance, is a perfectly reasonable question.
If you have no interest or idea, you are probably better off on another thread. Or perhaps find a hobby.

I was seriously injured at work.
Doing what I was paid for, which was protecting the Public.
Yes, it was my choice to do so, I do not complain.
I loathe Terrorists, they have no place on this earth.
I object strongly to the suggestion that using a walking stick is an an indication of a reliance on Benefits.
