Tent camping

Gillianrb

I have OA in my fingers and am really struggling to put my tent up these days. It is a 3 man, full height one with bendy poles. An airbeam is not an option. What else is out there that I could put up on my own? My 2 dogs don't help much!

Hi @Gillianrb,

Welcome to the Versus Arthritis forum.

I'm afraid I can't offer you any putting up a tent advice but you never know, another forum member may be able to provide some useful input.

Perhaps these exercises for the fingers will be of some use:

Hi. Time to trade it in for an air tent. We have an awning for our caravan, which goes up in no time.
pit was second hand, I know they aren’t cheap, but I think they are coming down in price.
