ABSTRACT:
An inflatable implement handle for use by the manually impaired is disclosed. The handle carries a pocket for interchangeably receiving an implement such as a pencil, an eating utensil or other implement when the handle is deflated. Upon inflation, a resilient handle for the implement is provided, with the walls of the pocket exerting a force against the implement whereby the implement is retained by the handle. The handle may be inflated to various degrees of resiliency to accommodate the extent of manual impairment of a user.
