Today we are joined by Andrew from Mangar UK for some excellent product training.

Our new Product Specialists Dan Toner and Michael McKeown are enjoying seeing these leading products in action.

The range of inflatable lifting equipment from Mangar is available exclusively in Northern Ireland from John Preston Healthcare Group.

Would you like any of these lifting products demonstrated to you or your colleagues?

Why not arrange a ' Lunch and Learn ' session? We bring the equipment that you want to see and also lots of Pizza!

These sessions can contribute towards your professional development and they are a terrific way to touch and feel and use the equipment for yourself.

Mangar were established in 1981 and is a world leader in the design, manufacture and supply of inflatable moving and handling, and bathing equipment.

They have two main objectives which we find is a perfect fit for our ethos;

• To enable people to retain their independence and dignity
• To reduce strain and injury risk for carers

The range of Mangar products help with everyday tasks such as getting in and out of bed, using the bath and emergency lifting cushions if someone is on the ground.

Like us, they are ISO9001 certified and a recognised world leader in this sector.
