Increase confidence when you're out and about with a red & white symbol cane, designed to highlight to other people that you are deafblind.
Made from lightweight 9.5mm (0.37 inches) aluminium tubing weighing only about 35 per cent of an equal length mobility cane. Folds up so you can pack it away easily when not in use and small enough to fit easily into a pocket or bag.
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).
Symbol canes are intended to be used only to indicate sight loss. For this reason, they are not designed with the required strength to be used as mobility aids and certainly not for support.
The main purpose of a symbol cane is to draw the attention of the public to the fact that the user has a degree of sight loss.
