Cheese/vegetable grater?

Hi,
I wondered if anyone can tell me if there is such a thing as a cheese/veg grater which can be operated with one hand?
I have extremely limited use of my left hand (can no longer grip a conventional grater) & it is getting worse so I am looking to get one of these if it exists at a very reasonable price.
Thanks

The Culinaire One Touch grater is the only one I can think of, and it isn't that cheap
(I buy grated cheese, Value grated cheese is of course amazingly cheap, and there are often BOGOFs on the nicer grated cheeses. So I don't know how good this is.)

What about a food processor that includes a grater grill? Might come in handy for some other things too.

that's a point; I've got the Kenwood mini chopper

£3.99 in home and bargains if you have one local. Reviews not that good.

Thanks, calley. I should have read the reviews first. My little Kenwood Chopper is very good (though not as tough as expensive food processors), but it is more expensive.

I had a JML chopper and Nicer Dicer/grater, but they were awful.0 -

I have limited strength/grip in my left hand, and have the culinaire one tough grater, one touch can opener and one touch jar opener. They are marvellous! If the cheese has been out of the fridge a while it's a bit messy, but as long as it's chilled its marvellous!
PS, I also have a JML nicer dicer for veg, and it's great for everything except onions!
Hope this is useful

if nothing else works,
you can buy pre grated cheese
and pre preprared vegetables in your local supermarket these days
nottingham rehab sells a onehanded grater
http://www.nrs-uk.co.uk/Products/4282/one-handed-operated-grater.html
but i bet it costs a lot compared to just buying the stuff ready prepared
also you can get a dycem style mat to hold things in place so they don't slide around
- or use the poundstore version (for under rugs, i believe)0
