HEALTHCARE entrepreneur David Lynch has launched a new online venture he hopes will revolutionise how people with disabilities can live a fuller life.
Named after the green coloured trousers worn by occupational therapists, www.greentrousers.com will offer many product ranges, including moving and handling, showering and aids to help with daily living.
The site is aimed at organisations working with or caring for people with disabilities, including hotels, leisure centres, charities, care homes, hospices, private hospitals and housing associations, as well as directly to disabled people, their families and carers.
A first of its kind in the industry, the website will offer a specialist live chat advice service from experienced product and clinical advisors.
A blog area will also offer an online hub for detailed product information and lifestyle tips.
David said: “We have been manufacturing and selling specialist equipment for over seven years at Lynch Healthcare in the North East and have built up a really experienced and knowledgeable team.
“We were getting a lot of enquiries from organisations such as hotels or gyms who want to cater for disabled people to offer the best possible experience to their guests.
“So we knew we needed to open up the market via an online hub where people can come, not just to buy their equipment, but also get advice, talk to our experts and know they are getting the support they need.
“Green Trousers site is designed to act like a virtual personal occupational therapist, providing the same guidance, advice and support – just over the internet.”
