A CONTEST has been launched to give a charity, school, new business, or good cause in the Reading area a makeover by winning some motorised blinds.

BlindsByPost is calling for nominations for the installations, and is open to all, regardless of whether they nominate themselves or another company.

The online blinds retailer will invest in the building or workspace of a worthy organisation with a raft of new motorised blinds.

It says it has already worked with The Brain Charity, based in Liverpool, to provide its building with a range of thermal blinds to improve heat retention in the winter months.

Oliver Hudson, managing director at BlindsbyPost, is looking forward to seeing the nominations.

“Many workspaces are in need of a bit of TLC and automatic motorised blinds can be a huge help in the summer months, as they can be programmed to drop down during those sunny periods where intense light can strain the eyes,” he said.

“We want to do our bit to support small businesses, start-ups and charity organisations and make sure their workspaces are in the best place they can be.

“With the cost of living crisis causing many challenges for businesses across the nation, certain things can fall by the wayside – but we’re trying to give these businesses a chance to update their space with some quality new blinds.”

Nominations are open until Monday, July 31, and can be made directly to via its website: www.blindsbypost.co.uk/office-makeover
