HelpSoq

Dutch company HelpSoq is helping people regain independence with its electric donning aid for compression stockings. In early 2025, the solution began a pilot at a healthcare institution in Denmark as part of the ACE pilot support programme.

Helpsoq, a company from the East Netherlands, developed an electric donning aid that enables older adults to put on compression stockings independently, reducing physical strain and the need for assistance. Supported by the ACE programme, HelpSoq successfully completed a pilot with Vesthimmerland Municipality in Denmark, demonstrating how its user-friendly, patented system can enhance independence for users while easing the workload of healthcare professionals.
