Hi, not too sure about the idea of coloured canes. You are right in saying that the white cane is the universal indication of blindness. I fear that in offering coloured canes the impact will be lost and people will start to think that it is some kind of fashion accessory rather than a major mobility aid for the blind. Others may have different views
but why confuse something that is so widely? Regards to you, CJ.

Sorry Barry, this may be inappropriate. I would be interested if those who have used the imported non white canes would e-mail me off list to tell me how you find them and the public's reaction to you using one instead of the traditional long white cane, the worldwide symbol of blindness.
