Hi Matteo, hope all goes well with the coursework. I've got osteoarthritis in the left hand and do a lot of typing also. Where are you based and are you on WhatsApp?

Hi @lesmal, thanks for replying so quick! I am based in london but video meetings also works fine to get a feel of what your experience with handwriting is! I am on whatsapp and this is my phone number +32493346968 (i used to live in belgium). If you'd like more info on my project I can also give you my teacher's contact details.

For my Design Technology coursework I'm redesigning a writing pen to be more comfortable for people with hand arthritis or osteoarthritis. I'm looking for one or two people willing to have a short 20–30 min conversation (phone, video, or text) about everyday challenges with grip and writing tools. Completely anonymous, no medical questions — just your real experience.
