OR
Are terminally ill
The following conditions may also qualify for VAT Relief in some circumstances; Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Oedema, Heart Disease, Stroke.
A person with a temporary injury like a broken leg would not qualify, nor would a frail older person who is otherwise well and non-disabled.
If you are not sure please ask your medical advisor, as we are not able to give medical opinions.

Fitting Expert Review
This bunion guard is great for protecting a painful bunion. The gel moulds to the shape of the foot and it does not take up as much room as the Gel Bunion Relief Sleeve so I generally find that it fits comfortably in people's footwear. It should not be worn if the area is sore or the skin is broken. They are washable by hand and should be allowed to dry naturally.
