Gentle Grip in Partnership with the Royal College of Podiatry
A Shared Mission - Foot Health Matters
At Gentle Grip, our mission has always been to put comfort and wellbeing first, when designing and developing our range of socks. By supporting healthy circulation and everyday comfort, our range of socks is designed to help people look after their feet – and feel good from the ground up. We believe that foot health is often overlooked, and deserves far more attention. That's why we're incredibly proud of our strategic partnership with the Royal College of Podiatry, as we work together to champion better foot health.
Who Are the Royal College of Podiatry?

Their mission includes amplifying the voices of healthcare professionals in policy, campaigning for better foot and lower-limb care, and supporting those who suffer from foot conditions. They work tirelessly to represent and champion those living with foot and lower-limb health conditions, ensuring their members’ voices are heard by decision-makers, while also raising public awareness through education and campaigning.
