Context

The Police Rehabilitation Centre at Flint House, Goring-on-Thames provides the highest standards of individually planned, intensive rehabilitation services for sick and injured serving and retired police officers.

At the end of September 2017, the centre contacted Zenith as they wanted a covered outdoor area in their idyllic gardens.

Products supplied

The canopy selected and installed was a 5 x 3m Simplicity 6 Series Veranda Canopy with 6mm clear toughened glass. The framework is manufactured in aluminium and powder-coated in grey to match the surrounding buildings.

In keeping with the surroundings the Victorian Upgrade option was also included to consist of gallows brackets and column bases.

Other work undertaken

As well as installing the canopy, the project also incorporated Zenith’s landscaping service where they dug out and levelled an existing flowerbed and installed patio slabs to match the existing pathway.

Zenith’s install team carried out the site surveys, produced drawings, prepared risk assessments and method statements prior to installation to ensure a safe working environment for the project.

Comments

Brian Richards, The Estates Manager who co-ordinated the project was delighted with the Veranda Canopy and said, "Our residents are now enjoying a covered outdoor area to sit and relax in all weathers."

Ian Manners of Zenith said, "As the Rehabilitation Centre is a charitable organisation we were pleased to supply the canopy at a very competitive rate."
