My aunt (91) has moved into a residential care home and she's feeling cut off from the rest of the family

She's still compos mentis but her eyesight/hearing/coordination isn't what it used to be. I'm looking for an easy-to-use mobile with big buttons, e.g. a mobile version of this:

Ta folks

mobile? could get into all sorts of mess with charges, texts, charging..

my mum's in much same situation, in sheltered housing, ay 89 - and to be honest I wouldn't trust her with a mobile. Cordless phone is 'handy' but to be honest her hearing is so bad it's not much help..
