Shackletons Furniture Offer Respite to the Convalescing

Shackletons are chosen by the design consultant Three Percent Ltd to assist with the contemporary look of the Geoghegan Group’s purpose built care centre in Guilford.

Specialising in Respite care, Three Percent were looking to create a contemporary environment that would provide a comforting feeling for orthopaedic rehabilitation away from the domestic confines of patients’ homes.

Tommy Cairns, designer and project manager at Three Percent Ltd says: “I have used Shackletons before and have always been impressed with their knowledge and service. It’s incredibly reassuring to know you are working with team that understands the technicalities of furnishing a care environment – it isn’t just about making things look pretty.”

The Clavadel is a purpose built short stay care centre specialising in post-operative, rehabilitation and convalescent care. Catering for all types of orthopaedic rehabilitation with an expertise in post-operative knee and hip replacement. Shackletons provided seating throughout the facility specifying the right seat heights, foam density and fabric treatments to support the Centre’s services and clients.

Tommy added: “Shackletons provided a product that works within the timescales discussed. They were always there to discuss any concerns we may have had. It was a pleasure to work with them again, great relationship and a job well done.”

Shackletons have been in the business of creating comfort for over 50 years and are the UK’s leading design and manufacturer of specialist contract furniture for the healthcare sector.
