Roseberry Park Hospital in Middlesbrough first opened in 2010, with a design ethos focusing on individual patient experience. Following recent consultations with staff and patients, a decision was reached to replace their existing wooden outdoor furniture with a more aesthetically pleasing alternative which was safer for high-risk service users.
Our Ryno® range was selected due to its combination of extreme strength and an inspiring aesthetic. Designed and built to last, all Ryno products are covered by a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing faults, and their unique organic design and extensive colour palette can have an enriching effect in recovery-led spaces.
To preserve safety for everyone, our installation team attended site to securely fix the Ryno tub chairs and benches to the floor, making them totally immovable. This prevents the furniture being picked up or overturned in the event of a disturbance, and from being moved and used to climb on.
Outdoor spaces are an essential part of the healing environment, with research linking time spent in green and blue spaces with reduced stress and improved mental wellbeing, particularly for those receiving mental health treatment.
