The handSteady is packed with features that make it an ideal companion for anybody living with cancer. It’s the comfortable, dignified and easy way to enjoy your favourite beverages. Whilst its made from shatter-proof polypropylene plastic, the mug has been cleverly designed to look and feel much like a traditional bone china mug so that the user can feel confident, independent and hydrated.

The rotating handle means the cup self-stabilises, so it’s much harder to accidentally spill any liquid, but it also makes the act of drinking more comfortable. The 360 degree rotation of the handle allows you to take a sip without bending your wrist, lifting your elbow or moving your head back as far. These are all aspects of drinking that can cause discomfort or pain for people with restricted movement. The handle itself is also large enough to fit all four fingers so that weight is distributed more evenly when you’re holding the cup.

The handSteady is approximately 30% lighter than normal china cups, so as well as less stress on the joints and hands, weight is reduced too. All in all the handSteady is helpful for all sorts of different people as a result of its clever, practical design. If you or a loved one have been experiencing issues with drinking, the handSteady might be able to help.

I got the mug to help my Dad, it's great best thing I've bought for a long time, my dad doesn't spill his drink anymore and can have a hot cup of tea. 

This is such a good idea, and has made having a cup of tea much less risky!
