Wheelchair Accessible New Bench Tables from Westmead
02 March 2007
2 new Garden Bench Tables launched by Westmead Contract Furniture that are both elderly and wheelchair friendly
Westmead Contract Furniture, an approved supplier of bench tables to Pub and Leisure Groups nationwide, has launched 2 new bench table models that they claim will appeal to a broader section of the population, by offering easier access for the elderly and disabled. Priced from £79.95, the design copyright protected 4 Seater Quattro and 6 Seater Bermuda Bench Tables are available in 2 finishes, a natural stained Rustic finish and a Deluxe Varnished finish. Westmead claim that these new bench tables, with side access to every bench seat, will appeal to older customers, and the open sides and ends provide wheelchair access. Westmead believe that with a growing aged population and an estimated 750,000 or more wheelchair users in the UK, it is important that the needs of these customers are addressed by Publicans, including providing good access to use a garden ( they suggest also that establishments should consider ramps instead of steps in gardens, and provide handrails where appropriate). Tony Libra, Sales Manager for Westmead explained another reason behind the development of these new bench tables :- ‘Our customers have clearly told us that traditional A Frame tables, whilst still offering great value for money, are very dated and limited in their appeal to their customers. Whilst our 8 Seater round and square bench tables are popular, many customers stressed to us that most of their customers visit in parties of 4 or 6, so there was clearly a need for smaller and less expensive tables to accommodate those visitors’ Current Westmead Special Offers can be viewed at www.westmeadcontract.com and customers can order on-line or Telephone 01905 797233 / 798666Released By
