You’re Invited To Our A Be A Friend Tea Party

25th February 2015

Did you know that over five million older people are affected by loneliness and this is on the rise?

We meet elderly and disabled people on a daily basis and understand how wide spread loneliness is and what an awful effect it can have on people’s lives. As a result we want to help Friends of the Elderly on their campaign to combat the issue. In partnership with StairliftRecycling.co.uk and Keighley Cougar’s Rugby Club we’re hosting a Be A Friend tea party on Wednesday 25 March from 2pm in our lovely new showroom.

Everyone is invited to come along and enjoy the entertainment, free refreshments, cakes and scones – please feel free to bring along your own baking to share with the group. Whether by yourself, with a friend or family member, the tea party is a chance to get out of the house, meet like-minded people, catch up with friends and chat the afternoon away at your leisure.  

We’re also looking for volunteers to Be A Friend for the afternoon and to help out with the event. Contact 0808 178 8487 or email headoffice@a1stairlifts.co.uk for more information.

10% of any sales made on the day will go to Friends of the Elderly charity.

Our showroom is based on 56 South Street, Keighley, West Yorkshire, BD21 1DD.

Showroom Refurb

29th October 2014

We’re refurbishing our showroom to make it more easier than ever for our customers to come and test our stairlifts before choosing which of our new or reconditioned stairlifts they’d like to buy.

Call in for a free, no obligation consultation with one of our friendly experts who will talk you through all you need to know about stairlifts and making the right choice for your home.

Here are some pictures of the progress so far…

We’ve created a door which goes straight from the showroom and down a short corridor to the area of stairlifts which you can try out.

Following this, the whole showroom will be getting a lick of paint, new carpet and a general all round uplift.

We can’t wait to see the finished project but we’ll keep you updated. In the meantime though, it is business as usual so don’t be put off by the work being done – during in working hours there is little disruption.

We’re based on South Street Keighley, West Yorkshire BD21 1DD. And what a lovely day it is today….
