Abstract
A safety strap for a cane handle portion of a cane includes a strap piece extending between a first end and a second end, a first connection arranged at the first end, and a second connection arranged at the second end, the first and second connections being connectable to the cane at opposing ends of the cane handle portion. The cane strap supports a weight of the cane when the first and second connections are connected to the cane and a user's hand is inserted between the strap and cane handle portion, so that the cane handle is maintained proximate the user's palm if the user's grip on the cane handle portion is inadvertently released. Furthermore, at least one of the first and second connections is releasable when a predetermined pulling force is exceeded, so that the cane is allowed to fall away from the user in a situation in which retaining the cane is likely to cause injury.
