Naidex returns to the NEC (Birmingham, UK) on 22nd & 23rd March 2023. We’re excited to be back after an awesome (and very busy!) time last year!

We’re bringing more of our fabulous team along – ready to help you find the solutions you’ve been looking for! Try out our products, old and new – and we’ll have stock with us for you to purchase & save on the shipping fees!

We’ll have old favourites…

Lifting a free weight with an Active Hands gripping aid
Our original and most popular product, the General Purpose aid, firmly but gently pulls the hand into a fist.
Nimble - one finger package opener opening ham packet. Adaptive kitchen equipment. Suitable for reduced hand function: tetra, quad, cerebral palsy, SCI, spinal cord injury, stroke and more.

Our Limb Difference aid is ideal for those with parts of their fingers or hands missing.
  • General Purpose gripping aid – our very first product, and still the most popular! This pulls your hand into a fist around an object (such as a dumbbell), giving you a strong grip and allowing you to use and train your arm muscles!
  • Nimble – the one finger safety cutter. Perfect for opening parcels, food packets or crafting.
  • Limb Difference aid – for those with missing fingers or parts of hands. Like the General Purpose aid, it can be used for a wide variety of activities – including accessing equipment in the gym, kitchen or garden, holding the handlebars of a bike or for rowing or kayaking.

Kitchen Gadgets

  • SpillNot – you might recognise this one from TikTok. The SpillNot will not spill! Come and see for yourself that there’s no magnet or trickery – it’s just physics!
  • Cutlery Grips – these were really popular at Naidex last year. They’re dishwasher safe & slightly weighted – perfect for those who struggle to keep cutlery stable.
  • Kitchen Shears – these are a pretty new addition to our shop – and they’ve been really popular! Easy to use and often safer than a knife, these kitchen shears make easy work of vegetables and even frozen meat!

Personal Care Aids

  • Zip Grips – simple but effective! These plastic rings attach to any zip, are machine washable, and come in a pack of 6!
  • Zubits Magnetic Laces – these FLEW off the shelves last year! A revolution in footwear, these magnetic laces make putting your shoes on a breeze.
  • EazyHold Straps – perfect for personal care, crafting and more. EazyHold Straps are a versatile gripping solution – attach them to your toothbrush, pens, hairbrush, cutlery… or anything else you can think of!

New Innovations

Try out our NEW Angled Aid, released in November 2022.

The Angled aid is great for playing tennis, table tennis or baseball. You can use it to hold a hammer, or any other object that needs to be held at an angle.

Not only is it [Angled aid] more comfortable… it is at a 45º angle so sits at a more natural playing angle, which has helped my forehand and backhand no end. I’ve improved my game massively just by using this. It’s lightweight, and like with all of the Active Hands equipment, it’s durable and well made. I would definitely recommend using it for anyone who struggles with grip and plays racket sports.
