A £350,000 contract is helping bosses at a bedroom furniture firm sleep soundly.

Stacksteads-based J & J Ormerod Supplies has been chosen to design and supply fitted furniture for new apartments at Sefton Park in Liverpool.

An important part of the firm's bid for the work was its drop down bed which can be stored away behind a fitted wardrobe facade.

The specially designed bed is being installed in spare rooms in the apartments enabling them to be used either as a study or an office.
