Barons Furniture partners with One Fylde to enhance homes and community spaces
One Fylde is delighted to announce a generous donation of over 100 items of furniture including armchairs, dining chairs, tables and fabric from local manufacturer Barons; helping to transform the homes and community spaces of adults with learning disabilities and autism across the Fylde coast.
The donations will be used to furnish the many homes occupied by One Fylde tenants, create a welcoming ‘cosy corner’ at the Heart of the HUB community cafe, and provide materials for creative projects in their Arts & Craft sessions.
This significant contribution will help create comfortable and personalised living spaces that promote wellbeing and a strong sense of belonging for the people One Fylde supports.
Barons has been creating high quality contract furniture solutions for over 50 years. With all products manufactured in-house at their Lytham base, Barons is proud to offer UK made furniture crafted by skilled professionals with a keen eye for detail.
Representatives from One Fylde, alongside the people they support, recently visited to try out and approve the donated furniture, ensuring it met their needs and preferences. The donated items will play a vital role in improving everyday living for tenants, helping to turn houses into homes and shared spaces into welcoming community hubs. From comfortable seating for relaxation to practical dining furniture and creative materials, the donation supports One Fylde’s commitment to empowering people with learning disabilities and autism to live fulfilling, independent lives.
Tracey Bush, CEO at One Fylde said: “We are incredibly grateful to Barons Furniture for this generous and thoughtful donation. The impact this will have on our tenants and community spaces cannot be overstated. Having quality, comfortable furniture makes a huge difference to people’s sense of belonging. It helps turn everyday environments into places where people feel relaxed, supported and proud of their home. This partnership demonstrates the power of local businesses working alongside charities to create meaningful, lasting change in our community.”
This donation marks the beginning of a strong partnership between One Fylde and Barons, built on shared values of quality, care and community support. Both organisations are committed to continuing to work together to enhance opportunities and environments for people with learning disabilities and autism.
Garry Smith, Managing Director at Barons said: “We are proud to support One Fylde and the incredible work they do in our community. As a local manufacturer, it’s important to us that our furniture makes a real difference to people’s lives. Choosing One Fylde as a beneficiary felt like a natural fit, as their values align closely with our own.We hope this donation helps create warm, comfortable spaces where people feel safe, valued, and at home.”
