Footwear for icy weather

Hi 👋🏻 all
Can anyone recommend some good footwear for walking in icy conditions. I have fibromyalgia and arthritis and am clumsy and fall over a lot. I had a doozy of a fall this past winter and it scared me as well as hurting like hell, and apart from staying in all winter I'd like to be prepared and safe while out. It would be walking on mainly pavements and housing estates round town etc, I'm actually feared to walk on ice! Any recommendations would be greatly recieved
Don't want to spend too much so budget up to £70 ish
Thanks in advance ❤️

What I was going to suggest. It really does work!

Wow! I think I'm going to give these a go..I've got loads of old fluffy socks i never wear and i never thought of wearing them over my boots in ice! Will probably get some strange looks but that beats falling flat on my arse in the ice!! 😂
