using a rake as a crutch or for support

[jim8flog]

Some of the bunkers at our club are a bit dangerous for some with walking difficulty to get in and out of. I have fallen over on more than one occasion.

I know that a player is allowed to use a club for support but is a player allowed to use the rake?

Yes. There is no constraint on what he may use to prevent falling.
