A1 Blinds are Partnering with HOPE Charity to Help the Homeless

A1 Blinds are Partnering with HOPE Charity to Help the Homeless

At A1 Blinds, we believe that businesses can play a vital role in giving back to the community. We’re not just here to provide high-quality blinds; we’re committed to supporting those in need, especially as the cold winter months approach.

That’s why we’ve teamed up with HOPE Charity to launch a new initiative aimed at helping the homeless population in the North East. Together, we’re asking for donations of sleeping bags, new socks, and new underwear to provide warmth and comfort to those facing a tough winter.

How Did This Begin?

Recently, we sat down with the team at HOPE Charity to discuss how we could support their important work. The need for sleeping bags quickly stood out as a simple yet crucial way to help the homeless this winter. So, we decided to combine forces and launch a joint appeal, sharing a post on social media to reach out to our followers and the wider community.

We’re just getting started, and the response is already building momentum. We know our community is filled with generous people, and we’re excited to see the support grow in the coming weeks!

How You Can Get Involved

It’s easy to get involved and make a difference. We’re currently accepting donations of:

  • New socks
  • New underwear
  • Preloved sleeping bags

You can drop off any of these items at our factory in Blaydon:

A1 Blinds HQ
Chainbridge Industrial Estate
4-5 Tundry Way, Blaydon-on-Tyne NE21 5SJ

Even one item can help provide comfort to someone in need this winter. We kindly ask that all preloved sleeping bags are washed before donation. Every donation, big or small, will make a difference.

Our Goal: Warmth and Comfort for All

For us, this initiative isn’t just about collecting items. It’s about coming together as a community to support the most vulnerable among us. Winter is an especially challenging time for people without a place to call home, and we want to make sure they have the warmth and comfort they deserve.

By teaming up with HOPE Charity, we know these donations will reach the people who need them most. HOPE Charity has been working tirelessly to support the homeless since 2016, and we’re honoured to be partnering with such a dedicated organisation.

Jo Laight, founder of HOPE Charity, expressed appreciation for the collaboration: “The growing need for support within our local homeless community requires consistent contributions like these. The support from A1 Blinds and their followers will help us provide essential comfort and warmth to people facing hardship. This community effort will truly make a difference.”

About HOPE Charity

Founded by Jo Laight in 2016, HOPE Charity aims to support the homeless, the disadvantaged, and the isolated in our community. From offering hot meals to clean clothes and mental health support, they provide a vital service for those in need. Learn more about their incredible work at hopecharity.co.uk.

Join Us on This Journey

While the campaign has just begun, we’re hopeful that with your help, we can gather enough donations to make a real difference. On December 1st, we’ll be handing over all the collected items to HOPE Charity, who will ensure they get to those who need  them.

We encourage everyone who can to get involved. Let’s work together to bring warmth and comfort to those facing a harsh winter. Thank you for supporting this important cause. We’ll keep you updated on the progress of our appeal, and we look forward to seeing the amazing contributions from our community!

Vertical Blinds in Middlesbrough

Vertical Blinds in Middlesbrough

Vertical Blinds Middlesbrough

Update the look and performance of your Middlesbrough home with our range of vertical blinds. These dressings are ideal for windows and doors, customisable, and easy to install. Our vertical blinds are made to measure, so you can fit them into a range of profiles.

Vertical blinds are formed using several slats that hang down from a top rail. You can either pull the entire system across the rail or tilt and slat it. These sleek designs look as good as they perform, helping to improve the thermal efficiency and privacy of any room they’re fitted into.

A1 Blinds has over three decades of experience, and we use the skills gained to ensure you get a high-quality, bespoke installation. We offer home and virtual consultations to ensure you get the right blinds for your specifications and personal preferences. Get in touch with us today to get more information on our blind installations.

Benefits of Vertical Blinds

Popular Design

Vertical blinds are one of the most popular installations for homes in Middlesbrough and the surrounding area. They have a universal appeal and can suit all interior design and lifestyle requirements. 

Vertical blinds are sleek and modern, ideal for rooms where space is at a premium. When the blinds are pulled away, they neatly tuck into the corner to make sure they don’t take up space around a window or a door.

Long Lasting

Our vertical blinds are crafted using durable and hard-wearing fabrics that won’t discolour or fade when left in direct sunlight. Because vertical blinds are less likely to fold and crease, they require minimal upkeep to ensure they stay looking as good as the day they were installed. 

Vertical blinds are very low-maintenance because these designs don’t tend to collect dust and are easy to clean. No matter which customisation options you choose, they are a long-term investment for your Middlesbrough property.

Control Brightness

One of the key benefits of vertical blinds is that they allow you to control how bright a room is. Open your home up and flood the space with natural light, or enhance your Middlesbrough property’s privacy by keeping it closed.

The unique tilt function on these blinds allows you to let exactly the right amount of light into your space. Minimise glare so you can watch TV or work on a desktop without disruption.

Vertical blinds also offer outstanding levels of thermal efficiency. They can help to regulate the temperature of the room by keeping too much sun and heat out in summer or insulating against the cold in winter.

Where Can I Install Vertical Blinds?

Vertical blinds are popular because they are so versatile and adaptable. They are available in larger sizes, making them ideal for expansive glazed areas like bifold doors. They also suit everything from casement windows to patio doors. They are also popular in conservatories and orangeries, helping to minimise stuffiness. 

These blinds can be added to any window or door in any room in any type of space. They are especially popular for home offices where you can minimise glare and enhance privacy. Improve your focus without compromising on aesthetics.

Our vertical blinds are available in a broad array of colours, patterns, and finishes, so you can adapt them to any style of interior design. Enjoy an installation that seamlessly blends into your existing interior design or creates a striking contrast. 

Why Choose A1 Blinds?

At A1 Blinds, we have decades of experience installing vertical blinds in homes in Middlesbrough and the surrounding area. Our friendly team makes it their goal to cause as little disruption and hassle as possible. We work around your schedule, your preferences, and your budget.

Our team of highly trained technicians ensures that every vertical blind is individually manufactured to complement your Middlesbrough home. We test every single product individually to ensure it reaches you in perfect condition.
