A Big Thank You to Miele
We would like to offer our heartfelt thanks to Miele for their fantastic donation of a Miele Professional HM 16-80 D Rotary Ironer to use at our Ripple Retreat.
The Ripple Retreat is a place for families of young cancer patients in Scotland, to unwind and spend time together during the most challenging of times, in our soothing natural surroundings. The award winning home from home has families staying most weeks of the year.
Miele choose this model for us as it produces a high standard of finish in a compact design and would help uphold our reputation for demonstrating pristine quality and cleanliness at the Retreat. Additionally, they thought it would help our Ripple Retreat team to make light work of all of their flatwork ironing so they would be able to spend more time supporting their guests in other areas and really make the most of their stay there.
The gift, worth in excess of £2000, will make a huge difference to our housekeeping team when they are changing over the laundry and bedding for families coming to stay at the Ripple Retreat. All the bedding and linen is changed between each stay and this can be a massive undertaking for our team. Having the Rotary Ironer will not only save hours of time but also a lot of hard work.
Gemma Christie, Miele’s Business Account Manager said:
“The reason we wanted to support Ripple Retreat is that we were so moved by the work and dedication that the team have shown in making the Retreat such a special place to visit, and the journeys that the staff have been on themselves too humbled us all. We could not think of anyone more deserving of our support.”
