The K Care Swan Neck Cane is a single-point walking stick with an offset (swan neck) shaft. The bend sets the handle directly above the tip, so the load goes straight down the stick rather than behind it, which makes it feel steadier than a straight cane for many users. The shaft is anodised aluminium and adjusts for height with a push button, and it comes with a wrist strap.
It is fitted with the K Care Steady Tip, whose sloped edges keep more rubber on the floor when the stick is planted at an angle. Tested to BS EN 1985:1991 and AS EN 12182:2015. Available in black, blue, bronze, brown and green.

Who it suits
A client who needs light single-point support for balance or to offload a painful hip or knee, and who has the grip and wrist strength to use a standard handle. It is a first walking aid for many people after joint surgery or with mild instability. A client who needs the stick to stand on its own, or more base of support, should look at a quad cane, and a client with weak or painful hands may do better with a moulded or ergonomic handle.
