Tenura - Celebrating Purple Tuesday

What Is Purple Tuesday? 

Purple Tuesday 2023, celebrated on the second Tuesday of November, is a global movement aimed at making businesses and organisations more accessible and inclusive for individuals with disabilities. At Tenura, we are dedicated to championing this cause. In this blog post, we'll explore the significance of Purple Tuesday, our commitment to accessibility, and how we're working towards a more inclusive world.

Why Purple Tuesday Matters:

Purple Tuesday is more than just a day on the calendar; it's a reminder of the essential role of accessibility and inclusivity in our society. It calls upon businesses to prioritise inclusivity and disability awareness to provide equal opportunities for all, regardless of their abilities or disabilities.

Tenura's Commitment:

At Tenura, we understand the importance of creating a world where everyone has equal access and opportunities. Our dedication to this cause goes beyond a single day, but Purple Tuesday serves as an annual milestone to reaffirm our commitment. Here are some of the steps we've taken and continue to take to support this mission:

  1. Accessible Products: We design and provide a range of innovative, anti-slip and grip-enhancing products that make everyday tasks more accessible for individuals with limited hand strength or mobility challenges.
  2. Educational Resources: We offer educational materials, tips, and guides to help individuals and caregivers create safer and more accessible living environments.
  3. Community Engagement: We collaborate with organisations and communities focused on accessibility and inclusivity, sharing insights and experiences to contribute to positive change.
  4. Feedback and Improvement: We actively seek feedback from our customers, users, and partners to improve our products and ensure they meet the evolving needs of the disability community.

Inclusivity for All:

Our vision is to empower individuals with disabilities, offering products and resources that enhance their daily lives and foster a sense of independence. By creating accessible solutions, we aim to remove the obstacles that limit opportunities and ensure that everyone can participate fully in their chosen activities and experiences.

As we observe Purple Tuesday, we recommit ourselves to the values of inclusivity and accessibility. At Tenura, our mission is to empower individuals and communities to lead fulfilling lives without limitations. Together, we can build a world where everyone, regardless of their abilities, can thrive. Join us on this journey, and let's make inclusivity an everyday reality.

Parkinson’s Awareness Month 2022 and Discount Code

In this blog, we explore the history of Parkinson’s, giving advice surrounding the importance of this awareness month and how you can provide support and get involved. Lets make a difference…

A Brief History of Parkinson’s

Parkinsons Awareness Month Temporary Tattoo on HandsThe disease was first discovered by James Parkinson, who was an English surgeon. The disease was named after James and his work into its discovery. James Parkinson’s most famous work is Shaking Palsy, which became the foundation for understanding Parkinson’s. His principles were later refined and described by Jean-Martin Charcot and William Gowers. Their efforts helped create treatments and standardise the study.

Thanks to their work, we now have defined characteristics (Parkinsonisms) of Parkinson’s. For example, the loss of facial movements and reduced eye motion known as Hypomimia, or masked face and facial masking. Hypomimia can start as early as stage one and progress as the condition takes hold. It is a misconception that the first sign of Parkinson’s is a tremor, but difficulty sleeping and smaller than usual handwriting are more common.

Another misconception is that Parkinson’s only affects the older generation, but 137,000 people under the age of 50 have early-onset Parkinson’s, which equates to 0.2% of the population.

Parkinsons Awareness Month Start a Conversation Two people Talking About ParkinsonsTheir work shaped the specialist roles of healthcare staff that help those with Parkinson’s, which include:

  1. Physiotherapist
  2. Movement Disorder Specialist
  3. Occuaptional Therapist

Each of these key positions will help in different aspects of the person’s life, focusing on rehabilitation and support.

Ways to Support Your Loved One With Parkinson’s

Parkinsons Awareness Month 2021 KnowMorePDEducate Yourself and Teach Others

It’s essential to have a good understanding of the topic, allowing you to help those in your community or family who have the disease. You can be more considerate and provide better support when knowledgeable. 2021’s theme of Parkinson’s Awareness Day stressed the importance of #KnowMorePD.

Reach Out to Someone with Parkinson’s

Certain individuals with Parkinson’s can become closed off, so reaching out and checking up with them is crucial for their mental health.

Participate in Charity Events and Fundraising

Up and down the UK, there are many events held year-round that you can participate in to help spread information and raise awareness and money for this important cause. There are many fun ways to get involved, catering to various interests, from walks and runs to bake sales and coffee mornings.

Parkinsons Awareness Month 2018 How to Start a ConversationShare Information and Resources Around PD

2018’s theme for Parkinson’s Awareness Day, Start a Conversation, asked people to get involved in the observance day by spreading knowledge and information about the topic to inspire others to get involved. Speak to the community, your family, friends, neighbours, local businesses and healthcare teams.

Parkinsons Awareness Month 2019 KeyToPDGetting Tips On Parkinson’s Treatments

Parkinson’s Foundation 2019 theme stated that awareness is the ‘Key2PD’. They asked the community to share helpful tips to help those living with the disease. Knowing how others are coping independently with struggles associated with the disease can improve welfare. This information can help healthcare providers see trends in treatments. Make sure to go on social media and see the tweeted tips under the #Key2PD hashtag.

Parkinsons Awareness Month 2020 Plan4PDCreate Plans to Prepare for Parkinson’s Challenges

This plan is to help improve mindset and mental health, so plan items into the day that will inspire you, such as a walk or a phone call with a friend. If there are certain tasks around the home you need some help with, stick them on the calendar and see if friends or a professional could provide the help required. There’s no need to put off the task fully. Mark it on your calendar and plan for it, which helps to minimise stress. 2020’s theme, #Plan4PD, inspired this tip.

Find Products that Can Alleviate Issues

At Tenura, we have many helpful products for those with Parkinson’s. We listed some of the most common symptoms and some products that can provide help:

tenura-jar-opener

Tremors are uncontrollable shakes, often in the hands and fingers, making opening containers tricky. Having a silicone jar or bottle opener can make opening bottles and jars easier as well as providing a good grip on other objects like taps or doorknobs.

Tenura-Rubber-Floor-Mat

 

Impaired posture and balance can increase the risk of slips around the home. Placing a Tenura non-slip floor mat in areas where additional grip is required, such as a foothold near a sofa or at the side of a bed, can help reduce this risk.

T-CG-1-Cutlery-Grips-Pen-for-Crossword-11

Writing style changes, and with Parkinson’s, it often gets smaller due to more limited hand movements and the difficulty and pain of holding a thin pen or pencil. By increasing the width of the pen with a Tenura cutlery grip, you can make writing a more comfortable task for the person with Parkinson’s.

 

If you want to get involved in this year’s Parkinson’s Awareness Day, use the following hashtags:

  • #UniteF­or­Par­kinsons
  • #KnowMorePD
  • #Parkin­son­sA­ware­nes­sMonth
  • #Parkin­son­sA­wareness
  • #Together4PD

You can also get a 10% discount on the Tenura range, including the products above.

Parkinsons Awareness Month Discount Code 2022

The discount code is: PAM10, and will be valid for one month.

Tenura Christmas and New Year Opening Hours. Let’s Celebrate!

Tenura Christmas Side BannerI think we are all glad that this crazy year is coming to an end. We have all navigated through an international pandemic, lack of travel and Brexit blunders, so I think this holiday is well earned.

We want to thank you for your continued support of the brand and our goal of helping people remain living independently with the assistance of grip-enhancing and non-slip Tenura products

The Tenura team are greatly looking forward to Christmas this year, as we can spend it with our family and close friends. We will also be spreading the Christmas cheer by calling those family members or friends who are self-isolating.

A Look at Tenura’s 2021

In 2021, Tenura participated in the Purple Tuesday campaign. Our goal for the campaign was to make the website more accessible for disabled individuals. We are continuing with this initiative in the coming year. We also helped to spread awareness and key information about some causes close to us and our customers:

More products from the Tenura range are now available in cardboard cartons as we move away from plastic packaging and towards eco-friendly alternatives, and 2022 will be no different. You can read about our eco-friendly initiatives in the ‘Fixing the Plastic Crisis’ blog.

We enjoyed watching the fantastic Paralympians competing at the Tokyo Paralympics and created a blog looking at ways to make sports more accessible for the disabled. We are excited to watch the  Beijing Winter Paralympic Games in 2022.
