Curved Wooden Transfer Board
Curved Wooden Transfer Board
Safe, smooth and reliable support for seated transfers
The Curved Wooden Transfer Board is a practical mobility aid designed to support safe, controlled seated transfers between surfaces such as wheelchairs, beds, chairs, toilets, evacuation chairs, and vehicles.
Its contoured shape creates a natural transfer path, making it particularly useful where fixed armrests or limited space can make positioning more challenging.
Crafted from durable yet lightweight wood, the board provides a stable bridging surface while remaining easy to handle, transport, and store. The smooth finish allows for a controlled sliding motion, helping to reduce friction and minimise strain for both the individual and the assisting health and social care worker.
