💧 Hydrotherapy pools

What a special evening! 🪩✨

On Friday, Jodie and Katie from the Innova team were delighted to attend the Martin House Glitter Ball at Rudding Park, alongside our friends at P+HS Architects. It was a wonderful night celebrating the incredible work Martin House does for children, young people and their families, and we managed to grab a photo with Sir Gareth Southgate too!

One of the most moving moments of the night was a speech from Mehreen, mum to Ava, who is cared for by Martin House. Mehreen spoke about the family’s time in the hydrotherapy pool together:

“Ava absolutely loved it and it was wonderful to see her have so much interaction with her sisters. It might sound like a simple thing, going swimming together as a family, but for us it really was a first, and it felt like a really special moment that Martin House made possible.”

We’re incredibly proud to have provided the pool at Martin House Children's Hospice, and hearing first-hand the difference it makes to families like Ava’s is exactly why we do what we do. 🧡

Thank you to Martin House for a fantastic evening and to P+HS Architects for the great company!

A huge thank you to everyone who came along to our talk at Healthcare Estates.

We had a fantastic day reconnecting with familiar faces and meeting new ones. It’s clear there’s a huge amount of energy around the New Hospital Programme and major builds across the country, and we’re excited to continue those conversations.

If you weren't able to join us, there’s still a chance to see it all in action. We are running a free Hoisting Innovation Workshop at Midland Metropolitan University Hospital, where you can:

- See how the hoist systems work in a real hospital setting
- Hear from the physios who use them every day
- Learn about the hoisting decisions made at Midland Met, and the reasons behind them

Most hygiene room headaches aren’t actually caused by the wrong decisions, they are caused by the right decisions made in the wrong order!

That's why we’ve put together a brand new step-by-step guide to specifying a hygiene room for an SEN school.

It walks you through every decision in the order it needs to be made, so the room works for pupils and staff from day one.

England's first NHS National Rehabilitation Centre is open, and we're proud to have played our part.

The brand new 70-bed NRC at the Stanford Hall Rehabilitation Estate is helping people regain their independence after life-changing illness or injury.

It was our pleasure to run a training session on site to make sure the team feel confident with the equipment from day one. Thank you to the brilliant staff for getting stuck in and for having us on board. This is a fantastic facility that will make a huge difference to people's lives.

Just 1 week to go until Healthcare Estates 2026!

On 14th October, our very own Joe Hulbert will be taking to the stage at Healthcare Estates 2026 in Manchester.

Midland Metropolitan University Hospital is one of the most significant new hospitals delivered in the UK in recent years, and behind a build of that scale sits an enormous amount of specialist equipment that has to be specified, coordinated, installed and handed over without disrupting the programme.

In his talk, "Managing Specialist Equipment Complexity in Major Healthcare Builds: Lessons from Midland Metropolitan University Hospital", Joe will share what we learned first-hand on the project.

We hope to see you there!

We love hearing feedback like this! The team at East Cheshire Hospice have had their new Essenza beds from Innova for just a few months, and they're already seeing a real difference for their patients.

Seeing equipment make care safer and more comfortable, so quickly, is exactly why we do what we do. A huge thank you to the East Cheshire Hospice team for sharing their experience with us 🧡

What should a hospice bedroom feel like?

That was the question St Giles Hospice set out to answer. They wanted two "gold standard" rooms that would set the benchmark for every future bedroom across the hospice.

See how Innova brought together the bedroom design, en-suite refurbishment, clinical requirements, bespoke joinery and specialist fixtures, delivered as one seamless solution.

"We'd love a Changing Places toilet, but we simply don't have the space."

We hear this a lot and that's where our modular solution comes in.

Our modular Changing Places toilets are manufactured off-site, with hoist and specialist equipment integrated from day one meaning minimal disruption to your visitors and site.

We can help you provide a fully accessible solution, from the design stage through to maintenance.

For leisure centres, attractions, parks, campuses and transport hubs, it could be the missing piece of your accessibility plan.

Turns out biscuits and chocolate bars can do a lot of good! 🍫

Our office kitchen tuck shop has so far raised an amazing £500 for Day One Trauma Support!

Day One Trauma Support helps people rebuild their lives after traumatic injury, providing peer support, information and a helping hand through what can be an incredibly difficult recovery journey. This money will help them continue that vital work.

Every few months, our team picks a new charity to snack for, so thank you to everyone who's been raiding the biscuit tin for a great cause!
