i'm thinking of taking Mrs B's riser recliner up for the few nights that she will be there for the "test" stay and if things go well then i might think about getting Mrs B a new riser recliner (old one still very much ok) i could then donate the old one too the home ... am i being daft in doing so?
No you're not daft, we donated several things to my mum's care home, they can always use them

Will probably need to be marked as fire safe, but most things are these days. Give them a call and ask Bibs, would have thought it would be fine and it's a great idea.

The amount of rubbish expands to fill the space available, the more space, the more rubbish.
