Mobile Phone Elderly

[polly2000]

Can anyone reccomend a good simple mobile for the elderly?
I like this one, Easy 5 it is so simple http://www.silverphone.co.uk/
Is there anything similar here or will this work over here if I buy it in the UK?

Any use?

There was another thread in the past about large buttoned mobiles suitable for ease of use by certain users but I can't find it at the moment.

Hi there,

I saw this phone on RTE a few days ago, so they are launching it here.
There's an article about it the BBC website.

Apart from big buttons and easy to use, it has an in built panic button.
Might be worth considering.

Thanks Clubman but the sagem simple is too complicated. It is for someone with early dementia/altzeimers so those 5 button ones look a lot easier to use.
