Wonder if anyone can recommend a front fastening bra. I have arthritis in my left shoulder and the back of my neck and having a devil of a job fastening a back fastening bra. Any recommendations please?

How about the 'tank top' kind of thing with a built in bra. They are cropping up on my Facebook relentlessly. I imagine they would be easy to put on and comfortable. I have soft pull on bras from Tesco, cheap as chips and comfy. But I don't have a huge amount to support.

Not quite what you were asking, but I fasten all my ordinary back-fastening bras at the front then swivel them round before putting my arms through the straps. I have always done that,

If you havent already tried that (apologies if you have), it might be worth considering before you buy any others?

From when I first wore a bra I fastened it at the front and swivelled it to the back. I thought most women did that 🤷‍♀️

It's kind of reassuring to know that it's not just me who does that hilarious 🤣
