Our Social Services will supply the first cane and a tip of your choice but all
subsequent canes you buy yourself. A lack of finds was the reason and no-one of
my acquaintance here has had a cane from them for around 6 years.

I think social services would supply you Andy. GDBA supplied me between 1st
and 2nd guide dog.

Hi all -
Since choosing no longer to be a guide dog owner, the GDBA have supplied me
with a long cane [Revolution with roller tip], but now that I need a new tip,
they say I have to fund my own, or try social services.
I've just looked at the RNIB website, under long canes, and can see my
Revolution cane listed. Firstly, I assume I would be charged the VAT free
price? and secondly, can somebody tell me about the different tips for this
cane? I can't quite figure out the advantages of one over another, like I say,
I have been using the roller tip, which seems to have good durability for
street work, what are the pros and cons of the other tips over the roller tip?
Thanks for any help -
Andy
