We believe Seating Matters to everyone
Edd Donoghue, Clinical Partnerships Manager at Seating Matters, will be demonstrating the Sorrento 2 at the Care & Occupational Therapy Show. Edd works closely with clinicians across the UK and has played a key role in establishing trust-wide seating audits that have driven fundamental changes in how seating is viewed and prescribed within healthcare settings.
During his demonstration, Edd will highlight how the Sorrento 2 supports safe early mobilisation, effective pressure management, and optimal postural positioning, while promoting dignity and comfort for the patient and safety for the caregiver. His approach is grounded in clinical evidence and real-world practice, helping healthcare teams recognise seating not as furniture, but as a critical clinical intervention.
