If the handle is loose then it means that the screw holding it on has become loose. To access the screw, first unscrew the the thin chrome metal disc, located on the outside edge, anticlockwise. It can be difficult to unscrew the disc but try gripping it with a dry thin cloth. If you have a rubber glove then that may also work. Don't use pliers or any metal tool as it will damage the surface of the disc. Once you have the disc off, the screw holding the handle will be easy to see. Tighten with a phillips head screw driver.
