Pencil Grips

Hi all,
Has anyone purchased pencil grips lately?
I have been referred by OT to a company in Leicester that wants over £20 for a pack of 5 Large Ultra Pencil Grips.
Must admit that price has made me balk - would like to hear of any alternatives before shelling out - I suppose I could put them in her Christmas stocking though...
Keep warm

You could try disability shops, or educational suppliers such as LDA or E J Nelson, the problem with those tho is they may want you to order quite a few, it's been yonks since I ordered any and I cannot remember the lowest number one can get. W H Sm*th might be another option. Would her school provide some? DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Another place that might be worth a try is the Early Learning Centre.
I hope you find some!0 -
Many thanks for responses and the link - those prices are more like it.
I've had a good result though, the original company appreciated my comments... and are going to send me a sample one through the post.

hi radders, the 'penagain' has been a godsend to tom, he has JA in his hands and it was all getting too much, saw OT and she recommended grips and pens, we bought a top quality one from ebay it was £20 but is nice and heavy and not plastic, staples also sell ergonomic pens and grips hth xxx0
