What are the best home features for people who aren't fully abled?

Mikaela Wilkes Reporter from Homed

Hi everyone, I'm Mikaela, a Stuff Homed reporter. A recent episode of Grand Designs UK, about a Paralympian whose marriage broke up during the build of his dream home, got us thinking. What are the best design features/products for a home if you are not fully abled? We'd like to hear from people who have adjusted their homes in some way to make life with a disability easier.

Bruce McLaren Retirement Village

Craving a dessert that makes the most of spring's fresh produce? Look no further than Georgina's signature Rhubarb Crumble.

This delicious treat has become a favourite at Ryman’s Bert Sutcliffe Village, where the sweet and tangy aroma often wafts through the air, tempting neighbours in for a taste. It’s also a hit with Georgina's 13-year-old granddaughter, Brooklyn, who loves serving it warm with gooey custard or a scoop of melting vanilla ice cream.
