NEW YEAR: KEEPING ACTIVE AND INDEPENDENT
Moving positively into the New Decade, don't let dressing hinder your progress.
Changing your clothes before and after a walk or stretching at home? This can be time-consuming, painful and sometimes just impossible. The Able Label brings you a range of clothes that ease independent and aided dressing.
You will be pleased to see they are versatile enough to take you to and during your exercise, right back to lounging at home.
THOUGHTFUL ADAPTIVE GIFTING WITH LOVE AND CARE
♡ CLOTHES FOR CARING ♡
Carers do the most incredible job, whether as a professional or caring for loved ones. We understand that the daily life of a carer can be very rewarding yet challenging, and that any support can go a long way.
The Able Label clothing is selected and designed entirely to help to ease the process of dressing and this often includes assisted dressing.
We have selected a range of both womenswear and menswear items featuring clever adaptive designs which we believe carers can hugely benefit from.
See our full Clothing for Care range, specifically selected for assisted dressing.
SHOPPING FOR LOVED ONES - ARE THEY ENTITLED TO VAT EXEMPTION?
Sending gorgeous gifts this Christmas or shopping on behalf of loved ones?
We love that so many of you purchase our adaptive clothing as beautiful gifts for family, friends and loved ones. We also like to shout about the fact we can offer VAT relief on the majority of them too. This is because they have been specifically designed to help make dressing easier.
We often get asked how does it work? Am I eligible, is my relative eligible? So we have put together this guide to make it all a little clearer.
LovABLE FESTIVE STYLING
For those happy days at home this Christmas, get styled up and be proud to show off your added independence in our favourite winter pieces. Layer up for crisp boxing day strolls or down with some cosy socks and a cuppa by the fire ♡
TAKING CARE OF YOUR BRAS
Our wonderful bras are the secret star behind every outfit. They are key to all day comfort and support.
So how can we take care of our bras in return to make them last?

In line with new regulations taking the safe step towards better protection in our communities, we have introduced reusable material face coverings.
