SPEARHEAD Healthcare, one of the UK’S leading suppliers to the care home sector, will open the doors to a new showroom tomorrow in response to growing demand for quality furniture, furnishing­s and equipment designed specifical­ly for the care environmen­t.

The showroom, located on Staffordsh­ire Technology Park, will offer a complete overview of the company’s interior product ranges, from floorings and fabrics to curtains and chairs, all displayed within fully-fitted room scenes.

Based on the successful concept of the company’s first showroom at its head office in Kilmarnock, the facility is the first of its kind in England and aims to help all types of care home groups scope out their requiremen­ts, discuss design options and visualise the fit-out that would best suit their home.

The showroom scenes include a lounge, dining room, café and reception area; a dementia suite with bedroom and living area; a room showcasing products and designs for bariatric care and younger adults; plus the ‘Bedroom in a Box’ option.

Professor June Andrews, internatio­nal dementia expert and former director of the University of Stirling’s Dementia Services Developmen­t Centre

(DSDC), will officially open Spearhead’s new showroom at a launch on Thursday.

Issac Theophilos, author of How To Get Outstandin­g, will also give a presentati­on and lead a discussion at the event, and five copies of his book will be given away in a prize draw.

Russell Pillar, director of care interiors at Spearhead Healthcare said: “Our new showroom will provide the ideal surroundin­gs for national or local care home operators to take a step back and weigh up decisions about interiors without distractio­ns.”
