Victoria Loves: for the mug collector.

It’s great to see that the revolution of stylish, modern accessible homeware is here! These mugs by Rosa Lifestyle offer so many people struggling with dexterity a way of continuing to have their cups of tea, coffee and hot chocolate. For some people it may not seem like a big deal, but when you can’t enjoy the little things independently due to inaccessible design, it does start to take a toll. I’d pair this with someone's favourite tea bags for the perfect gift.

Rachael Loves: for the eco-conscious.

These grip unscented soaps are an absolute dream come true. I have sensitive skin, and soap is always a struggle to use in the shower! This is a disabled-owned brand, and their product labels are all braille stamped too- I’ve got this on my wishlist after using their soap in a tin while traveling this year.

Founded by Taylor Lindsay-Noel, an aspiring Olympic gymnast who suffered a devastating accident while in training that left her paralyzed and in a wheelchair.
