Bags for women who use mobility devices

About the solution

“After she moved into an assisted living facility, one of her biggest frustrations was the ugly, medicinal looking, metal walker and her inability to carry her things in a stylish purse when using it. Unable to find a walker bag that Hazel liked, we, her daughters, Carol and Sharon, took matters into our own hands.
Sharon made Mom the first of several walker bags with the style and flair worthy of her personality and taste. Her bags became the rage at the assisted living facility and soon all of Hazel's friends with walkers, scooters and power chairs were sporting Sharon's handiwork.

Carol realized the bags were truly special when the ladies shared how the bags made them feel stylish and beautiful once again and how much they loved all of the compliments they received. HDS Medallion® (with the initials of our beloved mother's name) was born and these smashing bags have been lifting the spirits of women who use them on their devices ever since”, it says on the official website.

HDS Medallion produces bags for women all ages, all sizes, using all kinds of mobility devices.
