I don't know if this would be possible, but what about getting a full
length plastic one and cutting it to needed length with a junior
hacksaw? If it's plastic, especially hollow plastic, it could be
possible to cut and you can fit it to exact needed length. Hardware
stores have junior hacksaws at low prices, i bought one for ~£0.50 the
other day, and a regular plastic broom should be cheap.

I think it's not just the length of the handle, but the size of the
broom head (I prefer smaller, like 12") because of how unweildy a
larger one might be for me and the added weight of a larger one. My
arms are fairly useless when it comes to anything with weight, so I'm
hoping for small and light. But thanks for the tip. I appreciate that
folks have their thinking caps on for me on this.

here you can buy ultra light weight brooms. They work fine until you
stand on them, then theyre a new shape.
