Splints
Sally Underwood

Sally Underwood is a knitwear designer
who has designed colourful
and eye-catching splint supports.

Sally has rheumatoid arthritis herself
and has always disliked the ugly splint supports
that she has to wear.

Whilst working in a pub, she was very self-conscious
about her beige and ‘flesh’ coloured supports.

As a young designer, Sally wants more than just functionality,
And has created support that meet her own requirements,
in terms of style, colour and fashion.
