We are excited to announce that SOS will be holding a draw to win a special edition Grand Prix P Pod!
The British Leg of the Formula 1 Grand Prix is being held at Silverstone in July 2017, so we challenged our Upholstery team to come up with a Formula 1 inspired P Pod.
The competition will be announced on Facebook soon so please like and follow us for more information.
After a busy start to the year, it is important to reflect on progress and those who helped us achieve and exceed the expectations of our customers.
The business is continuing to grow into the year and we are looking forward to the introduction of new products currently under the final stages of development.
congratulations Emma for winning employee of the month in March
Managing Director Scarlett Cabrini gave high praise of Emma and her commitment to the business:
“Emma is always willing to go the extra mile and has coped well in situations of short staff and staff leaving the business. She never complains about her work load and just gets on and does a good job, she asks for help if there is a problem and doesn’t get involved in office gossip. Well done and keep up the good work”
Congratulations Emma!

Ken Fellows farewell by Production Director Stuart Pegg
We would like to wish Ken Fellows a fantastic retirement after 6 years’ service working as Service/Maintenance Engineer. Ken spent the day to day visiting clients to repair or replace worn out components on our wheelbases. This vital service has helped maximise the lifespan of our products, ensuring that they continue to function correctly long after purchase.
When Ken wasn’t travelling, he worked as part of the community product assembly team: Assembling products including T’max toilet and shower seats, Home chairs, Equipoise Straddle Seats and Glider frames.
Scarlett Cabrini, Managing Director congratulating Ken on his retirement.
Congratulations Ken, we wish you the best possible retirement
Congratulations Ken. From your friends and colleagues at SOS we wish you the best possible retirement.
