Our Technical Product Advisor, Chris Statham, hosted a Lunch & Learn session last week with the Occupational Therapy team at Oxleas NHS Foundation Trust, Children's Therapy Department in Abbey Wood, London. ๐Ÿฑ๐Ÿ“š

We had a highly productive session exploring a wide range of our paediatric equipment, including the Corner Chair, Combi Potty Chair, Juni, Brookfield, Samba, Strato, Hardrock, and Indigo.

The doughnuts and conversation went down a treat, and we're thrilled that the session resulted in a new Standing Assessment booking. Thank you to the OTs at Oxleas for hosting us. We love stepping away from the screens to discuss how our equipment can truly transform lives. โœจ

Teamwork makes the dream work (and the cake taste sweeter! ๐Ÿฐ).

We took our strategy meeting outside this week for a dose of healthy competition and collaboration. It was fantastic for the marketing teams from across all our brands to get together to share ideas, strengthen our 'one team' approach, and get energized. We didn't drop the ball on the court, or on our big plans for the future! ๐Ÿ†๐ŸŽพ

Huge shoutout to Liz Lepley for her baking MVP performanceโ€”that cake was a winner!

Derek York our UK Commercial Manager is setting himself a significant personal challenge this winter. On Friday, November 14th, he'll be walking 25 miles along the stunning, yet notoriously challenging, Cleveland Way route on the East Coast to raise valuable funds for BBC Children in Need.

Having only completed 14 miles of this route so far, this 25-mile stretchโ€”in the middle of November, where the weather is anyone's guess!โ€”is going to be a real test of endurance. The training starts now. ๐Ÿฅพ

To make this a full commitment, Derek has set up a JustGiving page and will start posting his journey here. Your support will give him the motivation he needs to complete this tough walk and raise money for a great cause. ๐Ÿฉท

Good luck Derek! ๐Ÿ€
