Gripability enables Simon to drink independently

On June 24 of this year Gripability held a workshop in a German school for physically handicapped children and juveniles. The numerous internal and external participants were fascinated.

"Gripability helps to regain a grip- and hand function." explains the headmaster excited "our Simon is for the first time in his life able to drink independently out of a cup. Gripability products really open up new perspectives for our students -- sensational!"

The manual training and creative works teacher is convinced and would like to have these possibilities available in his everyday school routine. "Just a basic selection out of the highly modular Gripability components would put me into the position to integrate many physically extremely disadvantaged pupils into learning processes were this seemed until now hardly realistic."

"The workshop itself is a wonderful experience for our scholars." says the school physiotherapist thrilled "I learned about Gripability at last year's REHACARE -- it was easy to convince the members of our school board to invite the Gripability manager, Patrick Oeffner, and his team to hold a workshop in our institution."

This year Gripability is located in hall 5, stand of 30.
