Inside Recliners — Issue 54

• Chair of the Month • Industry News • Inside Recliners • News & Events • Occupational Therapy 
Hi, and welcome to this month’s Inside Recliners. How are you? Usually at this time of year we’d be on the road, doing the trade shows and thinking about where to go for the Christmas party, but while neither of these can happen, one thing remains constant: we’re working hard to provide all our clients and retailers with the highest quality chairs. Like many other businesses, we’ve seen a slight downturn in orders over recent months, but that’s only to be expected with all the current uncertainty. We remain positive and confident that things will recover. In the meantime, here is some news on a recent revamp and rebrand on our healthcare range, and a few other snippets that have caught our eye this month. Enjoy, and stay safe.  The team at Recliners.
