About Jack Singleton’s injury
Following a recent fixture with Northampton Saints, unfortunately, Jack Singleton suffered a significant lower leg injury.
The hooker sustained the injury in a tackle in the 32nd minute of the Cherry & Whites’ win over the Saints.
Singleton underwent surgery on Monday evening and will now work closely with the Gloucester Rugby medical team during this rehabilitation period and will be using the StrideOn Orthomate knee walker to help with his recovery.
Why use the StrideOn Orthomate knee walker?
The Orthomate Knee scooter is robust and with its pneumatic tyres it can negotiate the lumps and bumps when out and about. The Orthomate is the best cross between an indoor and outdoor machine available on the market today.
It is easy to assemble requiring no tools, fully adjustable and most importantly easy to use. It has a powerful brake you can lock, so you can use your hands for everyday tasks.

We wish Jack all the very best with his recovery.
