Thanks to all for the suggestions - I will try my local NHS first. I did think of passing them on to a charity that takes old medical equipment but these are so old I have no idea when they were last calibrated and there doesnt appear to be much mercury left!
I do have a working steriliser with instruction booklet and electric ear syringe machine with booklet if anyone has ideas for those!
Kind regards

You can lead a horse to water... but at the end of the day, you and the employer can only offer REASONABLE support and adjustment. It's the same if someonne does not cooperate with the adjustments given, the employer cannot be expected to support performance or attendance problems indefinitely.

Can anyone advise re the following scenario?
We have an employee who has been having problems with his son - aged 13yrs – big boy physically, mental health and eating disorder. They have everyone involved including the GP, police and mental health teams. The child is violent and has now been permanently excluded from school. He is supposed to attend counselling daily but is not co-operating. The parents normally work while he's at school but now one will have to stay at home to look after the child and supervise him. He's violent and abusive and is now hiding things under his bed – including knives so parents even more worried he will hurt himself or them.
The parents are at the end of their coping capacity and don't know where to go for help of what to do next. The situation is affecting the employee's mental health to the point where he is desperate crying on the phone to manager at wits end basically.
Does anyone have any ideas where to go for help? I have supplied various sources of support and our EAP, but what they need is the child sectioning but they won't do it!
Thanks in advance for any suggestions
