Rosehill: so patient while we pondered

We were grateful you were patient while we pondered over the pews!

That was what the administrator at Elmwood Church, Salford, told Rosehill Furnishings after church members deliberated on design and colour.

Big thanks to Rosehill for keeping in touch and sending out samples while we made up our minds,’ he said. ‘Our pews were dated and we wanted to update the seating to make it more contemporary. We love our new chairs!’

For more than 30 years Rosehill have supplied products for all kinds of situations. Churches swapping pews for stylish, modern multi-purpose chairs have found they give greater flexibility – with the same area utilised in a variety of ways. Their lightweight seats are also available in various wipe-clean finishes.

But it isn’t just replacing pews where Rosehill have been able to make church spaces more appealing.

‘We have a wide selection of stacking chairs for community halls, meeting rooms and dining areas,’ explained director Elliot Brierley. ‘For the entrance hall or a quiet area where informal seating is preferred, we can supply sofas and lounge chairs to suit all budgets.’

The company also has a range of children’s chairs, suitable for all age groups, trolleys or cupboards and lockers for storage. Their acoustic screens help separate different spaces and allow privacy. These are made to order in a wide range of fabric types and colours, to fit in with the decor. Then there are their tables, including folding options which can be moved and stored on trolleys. For areas where the tables are left out, the pedestal tables in their ranges include a huge choice of shapes, sizes and colours.

All Rosehill’s products are contract quality, fire retardant and tested to British or European standards, making them suitable for public and commercial buildings.
