Naidex, the annual UK disability equipment show, is back with us next week.

On the first day they will be announcing the winner in their best new disability product awards.

The shortlist of nine finalists includes: a hearing loop that uses radio frequency, a hands-free hydration system, and a product that helps women with limited mobility put on their brassieres.

The event takes place at Birmingham NEC on April 25-27. For more details, go to the .

Any suggestions for a piece of access kit you might fancy? You never know, some clever inventor science people might be reading this blog.

A TV with built in speech recognition that auto-generates subtitles at the bottom of the screen? i.e. no need for the broadcaster to provide them? And it might leave more money for them to make better TV too. Bargain! Won't someone make my speechy-TV for me?

I would like a gadget that tells people who sit in the disabled seats on buses that I am elegable to sit there!

Some sort of noisy gadget would make them move and let me sit there,and if I'm in London I could use it on trains and the tube too,if I had it to go into my handbag.

This blog's layout and colours are TOO MUCH. Painful to read. I give up.

Katie Fraser- that gadget has already been invented. Its called a gun- you point it at the people you want to move, and most of the time they'll do what you say! It also works in other negotiation situations, like getting an overdraft at the bank, or haggling a great deal on a car.

Musical bra. Just imagine you touch it and it says I love you or starts playing romantic music!
