Rollator Running Freely

My brother in law has had a stroke and has also recently been diagnosed with Parkinson’s.

He has problems with balance and his left leg can often drag or become unresponsive.

We have bought a rollator for him - but it it rolls very freely and can run away with him and he falls.

We we’re wondering whether there is a device that could be fitted to the wheels to cause drag so they don’t run so freely giving him more control.

Thank You.

Kind Regards,
