January & February 2022
This month, we've been delivering units all around the UK from Scotland in the North to Ramsgate in the south coast. It's been a gruelling month because of the aftermath of the Omnicron variant that spread through the nation in late-December which affected our ability to deliver the UK units before Christmas. However, after some creative thinking we managed to move things around so that we ended up personally delivering and installing all of the PIVOT beds ourselves.
Here are some of the many happy new owners of a PIVOT whose beds we delivered and installed:
November 2021
In November, we gave PIVOT its first in-store experience at an adaptive retail store in the North-East of England with a pop-up shop in Newcastle's iconic MetroCentre. For three days, we showcased PIVOT bed to shoppers and to those who travelled all the way just to see it in action.
October 2021
We’re very excited to announce that we’ve partnered with Ribble Packaging the UK’s leading manufacturer of 100% recycled and recyclable fanfold cardboard packaging. Ribble is the nation’s sole distributor of the Italian Panotec machine – one of which we had installed last week to produce all of our packaging needs for PIVOT. Panotec packaging solutions produce state-of-the-art right-size boxes to eliminate the use of plastic, void fill and any excess packaging.

With our finished prototype at our workshop in London's iconic Somerset House, a working arts centre built on historic foundations around one of the most beautiful courtyards in Europe, we moved PIVOT to one of the grand event rooms and filmed our latest video and photoshoot.
Here's one of the promo videos that came from that day.

After our successful crowdfunding campaign in late 2020 and the overwhelming response we've had since internationally we felt our idea had true potential, so in early 2021 we decided to redesign PIVOT to make it a much more sophisticated and premium product.
Check out below what PIVOT Bed looked like back in November 2020! This is the model that all of our backers invested in.
Nine months later, we are proud to present PIVOT 2021. This is what our backers are going to receive:

We're delighted to announce that we've been selected as finalists in this year's Great British Entrepreneur Awards 2021!
Founded in 2013, the Great British Entrepreneur Awards acknowledges the hard work and inspiring stories of entrepreneurs and businesses in the United Kingdom.
The Awards have celebrated some outstanding entrepreneurs who have gone on to become household names. Previous winners include the founders of BrewDog, Grenade, Tangle Teezer, The LADBible, Clearscore & The Cambridge Satchel Company.
Founder of the Great British Entrepreneur Awards, Francesca James, said: “We have seen some incredible finalists over the years, and this year is no exception. It really is one of the strongest shortlists we’ve ever had, and the fact that so many exceptional people have applied during such a tough year is a testament to the resolve and entrepreneurial talent that exists across the UK.
“As well as the recognition, our finalists and eventual winners will join our fantastic alumni community that supports each other all year round. From networking and thought leadership, right the way through to mentoring and guidance – being a part of our ecosystem of entrepreneurs can be incredibly rewarding.
“Creating the shortlist out of so many wonderful applications was incredibly tough, so I don’t envy the judges who will now decide the regional winners. Everyone who has been shortlisted should be incredibly proud and we’re thrilled to be able to showcase their achievements.”
Anne Boden MBE, founder of Starling Bank, headline partner for the Awards, said: “In the unique circumstances we’ve seen over the past year, many entrepreneurs from every corner of the country have found ways to grow and to prosper. This year’s finalists are the ones who have shown the agility and imagination to adapt and we wish every one of them the best of luck.”
