Oakland Stairlifts Today Announce An Increase In The Number Of Inquiries For Stairlifts Due To The Recent Hot Weather

Online, August 6, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Stairlift supplier, Oakland Stairlifts, today announced an increase in the number of inquiries they had received due to people wanting to get out into the hot weather.

Recently the UK has been experiencing an extended period of hot weather. This is being welcomed by people around the country because previously the weather was nothing but cold winds and rain.

The hot weather means that everyone wants to be outside in order to maintain their garden or simply take in the sunshine. Many of the elderly, who have spare time on their hands, want to be outside for a large part of the day.

A representative from Oakland Stairlifts said, "We've had more inquiries for our stairlifts this week than any other. When we asked the customers, who were mainly the sons and daughters of elderly people, they told us their relatives wanted to get outside. The sunny weather is great for the elderly because they've got loads of time to get out in it, but if they can't get up and down the stairs easily then that time is restricted, which can be disheartening for the elderly."

The elderly are the most prone to arthritis and other aches and pains in joints, which means they are more likely to need a stairlift. This can be hard for them, as if they want to be outdoors for the day but need to go to the toilet, they can lose a lot of time if it takes them an hour to get up and down the stairs.

Stairlifts are able to help the elderly when they can't get up and down the stairs easily. This is really useful to the elderly that want to be outside as much as possible and gardening all day when the weather is as hot as it has been.

Oakland Stairlifts is a stairlift supplier based in the UK. They provide stairlifts to customers around the UK that will suit any household. They have a wide range of stairlift solutions that will suit all staircases and budgets.
