Stanna Stairlifts

Sock Monkey has a theory.

One day Sock Monkey was discussing Stanna Stairlifts with a colleague and this is when Sock Monkey realised that as well as the stairlifts obviously having to be quality controlled, they must be 'authenticated'.


The Authentication Process involves Dame Thora Hird sitting her bare bottom on each and every chair chair before it leaves the factory.

This is the final stage in the manufacturing process and prior to this the chairs are not stairworthy. Dame Thora's bare bottom is the final Seal of Approval.

Sadly Dame Thora passed away in March 2003 at the age of 91. Since then no stairlift carries her Authentification. Only about 3 people in the whole world know about this.
