I agree Carol as a tactile marking would draw less attention to one as a 
visually impaired Mum.

  Hi,

  I know have been some audible sound beacons etc but these may be rather 
expensive.  Personally I'd think about whether I could have an allotted place 
in the push-chair park and/or if a band on the handle might be sufficient to 
find it.

  I hope others can come up with good suggestions.
