Hi

My mum had a stroke on Monday and is in hospital and of course I cannot visit her because of the coronavirus, she is technophobic so I am looking for a really simple mobile phone she can use, she is a bit deaf also. So can anyone recommend a mobile phone that I can get her. Thank you.

How simple do you need it .. can she use a keypad, if not then take a glance at this one ..

Have a look at the RNIB website. Big buttons, simple controls.

There's a simple mobile phone on this site which is supporting people with hearing loss.

I think you need to check how she is and what if any, residual disabilities she has. She may not be able to use a phone at all for now

Thank you everyone, she has a slight weakness in her left arm but she is right handed. I have just ordered the Doro Secure 580 which seems to be the simplest, just being able to talk to her will help us both.

It seems so expensive for a really simple phone .. but in this instance, contact is more important than cost.
Please wish her well.
