Terry Lifts Returns to ITV Love Your Garden Transformation

Posted: 28th June 2022

This week we returned to the home of care worker, Carl Lamptey and his family, to find out how life has changed since a Terry Lifts Melody 3 vertical platform lift was installed as part of ITV Love Your Garden transformation, Woodland Wonders.

Before the makeover the garden was accessed by several steps from a raised patio and largely laid to lawn.  Entering the space was a challenge for Carl’s wife, Elle who had been diagnosed with a spinal disability and could no longer walk properly.

We were asked by the Love Your Garden team to provide a solution.  We installed a Melody 3 vertical platform lift in anthracite black with glass doors and side panels.  The lift has proven to be a life-changer for Elle.

“The lift has made a huge difference to my quality of life and had a big impact on family life,” comments, Elle.  “I can spend time in the garden with my children without having to rely on anyone else.  I have my independence back.

“I’m naturally an outdoor person and the lift enables me to use the garden again – to relax, eat and play with the children.  I just wish I could have had it sooner, and that they were available to anyone who needs one.  It’s an absolute game-changer!”

Travelling a maximum of three metres the Melody 3 vertical platform lift from Terry Lifts can accommodate virtually any manual or powered wheelchair, and a carer.  It can be sited internally or externally.
