The Criteria

We’re open-minded – big or small, practical or creative – all suggestions are welcome.

You might have an idea for:

  • Furniture or equipment that’s useful and looks great.

  • A way to make kitchens or bathrooms safer and easier to use.

  • Discreet safety features like elegant handrails, hidden supports, or smart technology.

Or even a completely fresh approach to how an accessible home can work.

The only must-haves are simple:

Your idea should make life easier – and it should feel like part of a warm, safe, and welcoming home.
