Mangar Bathing Cushion
Google the above product. If you know anyone who loves to have a bath but because of age, injury or disability, can not get in and out of the bath without assistance, this is the answer. This inflatable, very strong cushion enables someone to sit on the cushion when inflated to the top of the bath and swing their legs over into the water. They then deflate it so they can lie in the bath. When they are ready to get out, the cushion is inflated again and when it reaches the top of the bath the user can get out easily by swinging their legs over the side of the bath. This can all be done by one person with the use of the automatic, small compressor, the size of a handbag. Perfect for anyone after an operation when their legs are affected. It was purchased from Active Healthcare NZ last year and is still under guarantee. Made in USA. Visit the Google site and you will see videos and reviews. It cost $1500 and I would like $200 for it. I am moving to an apartment which does not have a bath.

Age Well Kiwi
We are a new support group for seniors. We meet once a month to share our experience and discuss our challenges & concerns.
With the growth of our ageing population, and more seniors living alone, this group would explore and advocate/address the social, emotional and physical needs of our seniors, and promote positive and healthy ageing.
We meet on the first Saturday afternoon of the month in Mt. Roskill. Our next meeting will be 3 Jan 2026.
If you are interested in joining us and contribute your ideas, knowledge, experience, talents and resources, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us at agewellkiwi@gmail.com.
