About Our Winter Warmers

Heated blankets and throws are the most versatile option for staying warm at home, draping over the lap or shoulders while sitting. The Senza Heated Cushion combines comfort and warmth in one, and as Natasha, our occupational therapist, notes: "The snug feeling you get from a plush cushion, with the added warmth of a heating element, gives this cushion a bonus factor. Heat relaxes muscles and soothes bone pains, so if you feel more aches on cold days, curl up on the sofa for a calm and cosy afternoon on those dark winter days."

For wheelchair users, the Climpson Comfi Cosy is a practical alternative to a coat. Natasha recommends it for exactly that reason: "Coats can be awkward to get on and off when sat in a wheelchair, or uncomfortable rucked under your sacrum. A wheelchair mac can be easier to wear. With a waterproof layer and a warm lining, you will be able to keep warm without multiple heavy layers."

If you want warmth without turning the heating up, Will Harrison recommends the Comfi Heated Luxury Cosy: it works like an electric blanket but is worn like a shawl or cardigan, so you just put it over your shoulders, button it up and switch on.

Winter Warmers FAQs

  • What is the best way to stay warm if I sit still for long periods?

    People who sit for extended periods, whether through limited mobility or simply spending a lot of time in a chair, lose body heat faster than those who are active. A heated blanket or throw over the lap is the simplest solution. The Senza Heated Cushion is worth considering if joint pain is also a factor, as Natasha notes that heat relaxes muscles and soothes bone pain, which tends to be worse on cold days.

  • Are heated blankets safe to use?

    Modern heated blankets have built-in temperature controls and automatic shut-off functions. Used according to the manufacturer's instructions they are safe and effective. As with any electrical product, do not use one that is damaged or frayed, and avoid folding it while it is switched on.

  • What is the best option for wheelchair users in cold weather?

    A wheelchair cape or mac is generally easier than a coat, which can be difficult to get on and off from a seated position and tends to bunch uncomfortably underneath. The Climpson Comfi Cosy has a waterproof outer layer and warm lining, removing the need for multiple heavy layers. Natasha recommends it specifically for wheelchair users for this reason.

  • Can I stay warm on a mobility scooter in winter?

    A good scooter cape keeps both you and the front of the scooter protected from rain and wind while riding. Fleece covers for the legs add warmth on colder days. Our wet weather wear range covers the options in full.

  • Is there a way to stay warm without putting the heating on?

    The simplest way is to use more blankets when sitting in the living room, but sometimes this isn't enough. The Comfi Heated Luxury Cosy works like an electric blanket but is worn over the shoulders like a cardigan, so the warmth follows you rather than staying in one spot. Heated cushions and throws are similarly targeted, warming you directly rather than the whole room.
