With an average of 17 showers being taken per week and 10 baths per month, our bathrooms are busy places!*

Creating a bathroom that is suitable for the whole family can be a daunting task, but we have pulled together some of our top tips to help you:

• Minimise the spread of germs and bacteria with an anti-microbial treated shower curtain – Available in plenty of fun colourful designs, choosing a treated curtain will provide you with peace of mind that your bathroom is a hygienic and clean place
• Lockable cabinets are essential for storing medicines
• If you have children around a soft close toilet seat is a must – The soft hinges will stop any slamming from occurring and save little fingers from getting trapped. Also a huge bonus is the fact that slamming seats waking you up in the middle of the night will no longer be a worry!
• Slip resistant bath mats are important - They not provide safety when getting in and out of the bath which is essential for all members of a family. You can choose from a selection of traditional colours and styles or, if  you are looking to enteratin children, this ABC mat proves that bath time can also be educational. Also treated with anti-micrbial coatings, they help you to maintain a clean bathing area.
• A bathroom night light can help the whole family – Putting an end to bright lights being used through the night or accidents from little ones, a night light adds a gentle wash of light
