'PRoP' is an ergonomically designed, standing workbench for older adults. It addresses the problem of bending and lifting through thoughtfully designed features while creating purpose through propagation.

'PRoP' assists gardening practices through its workflow stages and promotes activities which increase quality of life, such as social engagement, purposeful endeavours and exercise.
