Dewsbury manufacturer hired for £4.5 million care development

Dewsbury based healthcare furniture manufacturer has been hired by Yorkshire care group Yorkare to provide comfort within its 64 bed £4.5million luxury care home, Magdalen Park, in Hedon East Yorkshire.

Yorkare selected Shackletons to provide furniture with longevity and comfort in mind that would meet the care and comfort needs required for the three types of care provided: dementia, nursing and residential.

Resembling an up-market hotel, Shackletons complemented the purpose built environment with quality and craftsman made and upholstered seating, beds, and dementia specific occasional furniture to create a homely relaxed ambience.

Jason Bloom national sales manager says: “We’ve worked with Yorkare for almost ten years and we’re really happy to have been involved in translating their brief into an environment that will support their care and comfort requirements.”

Offering nursing, residential and specialist dementia care Magdalen Park is a stand out care home in East Yorkshire offering a sensory street which includes a general store, hair and beauty salon, and public house with two sensory gardens and a rooftop garden with a bowling green.

Shackletons have been in the business of creating comfort for over 50 years and are the UK’s leading provider of specialist care furniture which is still designed and manufactured by craftsmen in Yorkshire.
