Help: easy awning for blind and mobility impaired

DavidandJane

Here's the problem: David is blind, and I've got mobility issues.

We have a beautiful Isabella awning, I love it, but we struggle to put it up - the weight, the number of poles and getting the fixings up etc. Just can't do it, and if David is having a (medically) bad day then there's no way I can do it on my own.

What we need is something full size, lightweight, simple in its contruction but able to stand up to reasonably heavy weather (I know that the Isabella is unlikely to be matched when it comes to gale force weather!).

Any suggestions gratefully received, thank you.
