REMAP UK

A national charitable organisation of craftsmen and engineers who provide technical solutions for disabled people. 

REMAP, Caithness and Sutherland Panel have contributed the following article:

"REMAP is a national charity to which REMAP (Scotland) is affiliated, and is divided into local panels of which Caithness & Sutherland is one.  The panels consist of retired engineers, most of whom are chartered, and in most panels also with members drawn from the Occupational and Physiotherapy professions.

The members give their time and expertise free of charge to design and make mechanical devices on an individual basis to provide assistance that is not commercially available or affordable.  The Caithness and Sutherland panel is also fortunate to have at its disposal workshop facilities that can provide rapid response to referrals."
