Christmas presents for Grandparents
(13/11/2009)

The UK is going through an enormous demographic transition. The first baby boomers born after World War II are now drawing their pensions and the number of people over state pension age is overtaking the number of children.

This demographic shift will have huge ramifications not only for people living longer but also for their families. People want and need to stay active for longer; they want and need to stay independent and in their own homes; they also want to work for longer – and they should be able to do all this in a way which is fun, positive and life enhancing.

The Future Perfect Company has an exclusive collection of beautifully designed products for the over 50s market. So if you are looking for a Christmas present for Granny but have no idea where to start, look no further.

Products range from double handled mugs and teapots by Reckless Designs to Bypass Pruners by OXO Good Grips® and many more beautifully designed products for people who appreciate that getting older should be a pleasure. The ecommerce site is user-friendly with products clearly organised under the headings of travel, buy a gift, sport & exercise, hit the shops, gardening, cook, get organised and relax & rejuvenate. Products from The Future Perfect Company will help make life a little easier for anyone facing the challenges of later life.

Philippa Aldrich, brainchild of The Future Perfect Company comments: “In common with many women, I have first-hand experience of trying to make life a little easier for relatives and friends facing the challenges of later life. A few years ago I started investigating what products could and should be available to the over 50s and was horrified by the many dull, utilitarian products which look as if they belong in a hospital!

“In time, I became increasingly determined to champion the need for thoughtful design so finally took the plunge and – after 20 years as a city lawyer – have made my passion a reality by establishing The Future Perfect Company.”
