♡ 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.
