New mental health hospital in BirminghamActive Care Group, the UK’s leading national provider of complex care, approached Tough Furniture to assist with their project to convert a nursing home into a 32-bed mental health hospital. Phase One to supply furniture for 20 bedrooms and protective TV cabinets in lounge areas was completed at the end of September. The bedroom furniture was selected from our Tough Plus range and each room was fitted with an identical bed, bedside cabinet and desk in light elm. A special open corner wardrobe was designed in the same finish to complete the rooms. All the furniture was fitted to walls and floors by the Tough Furniture fitting team using anti-pick mastic. |

Another successful year at the OT ShowWe’d like to thank everyone who came to visit us at the OT Show in Birmingham last week. Tough Furniture staff really enjoy meeting current and prospective customers at these events. This particular show gives us a great opportunity to understand the problems Occupational Therapists come up against when trying to find furniture solutions for the service users in their care. If you weren’t able to join us, below is a photo of the stand we had specially designed for this event. There was particular interest in our protective TV cabinet and polycarbonate window protection. |
