KICK START THE NEW SCHOOL YEAR WITH GOOD HAND


HYGIENE As the new school year kicks off, it is crucial that all new pupils are taught good hand hygiene habits in order to minimise the spread of common, contagious infections such as colds and flu.


As more lessons seek to inspire and engage their pupils by progressing from the classroom to the great outdoors, teaching staff need to provide hand washing facilities.


Manty Stanley, Managing Director at Teal Patents, said: “The rise in popularity of outside learning is sweeping the UK. A growing number of primary schools and nurseries incorporate outside learning into their curriculum, which means that hand hygiene is a top priority.


SMART HAND DRYERS HELP SAVE ENERGY AT THE CLOCK TOWER


SANCTUARY Mitsubishi Electric Jet Towel Smart hand dryers have helped manage energy bills at The Clock Tower Sanctuary, Brighton's only day centre specifically for homeless young people. Further benefits include their quiet operation, which is helping maintain a calming atmosphere.


The Jet Towel Smart is a new 'hands- under' dryer based on the globally successful 'hands-in' Jet Towel Slim, featuring Mitsubishi Electric's quality build, high performance and energy efficiency. Using only 490–780W of power, it dries hands from only nine seconds, activating the instant hands are placed under it. It is ultra quiet, running at only 58-62dB, and is very compact.


An antimicrobial material is used, giving enhanced hygienic properties, while a filter separates dust and

particles from the air before it is blown onto users' hands.


The Clock Tower Sanctuary provides both crisis support services and one- to-one support to help young people move into training, employment and independent living. It is a friendly, bright, centrally-located, safe space that allows young people to engage with their peers, the volunteer team and visiting agencies. Its clients have access to food, showers, laundry, computers and telephones, while medical and dental visits and other help can be arranged.


Natalia Borg, the Development Co- ordinator from The Sanctuary said: "We are so grateful to Mitsubishi Electric Jet


“Hand washing is such a simple task yet so important in preventing unnecessary suffering. During play time, bacteria can spread easily from pupil to pupil. As we approach the next school term and anticipate the arrival of the new cohort of pupils, it is essential that they are educated on good hand hygiene and the perils of poor habits from a young age.”


In support of teachers and pupils alike, TEAL Patents has created the


Kiddiwash range, hand washing facilities designed exclusively for smaller hands. Portable and lightweight, the units can be located wherever and whenever a warm-water hand wash is needed.


The Kiddisynk can hold up to eight litres of warm water.


It is a


freestanding unit which can be wheeled into position. It has a unique ‘Flippi-tap’ which makes it perfect for small hands. As the unit requires no access to mains water, drainage or electrical sockets, the Kiddisynk can be situated at the point of need.


The Kiddiwash Xtra is the ideal teacher’s accessory for indoor or outdoor use. The unit is lightweight and portable providing young pupils with the gold standard of hand hygiene wherever it might be needed. Providing a minimum of 15 handwashes per filling, the Kiddiwash Xtra makes hand hygiene fun and educational.

Towel for donating such fantastic hand dryers. They have made an instant impact, helping create a hygienic and inviting ambiance in the centre."


The Jet Towel Smart's quiet operation helps with this, while their silver colour looks modern and non-institutional. Their speed of drying belies the small amount of electrical power they use, and there are further savings because the charity does not have to buy paper towels or launder textile ones.


The moving-on services include one-to-one case-working, mentoring and skills development. For these to be effective a calm and relaxed environment is needed, which the quiet Jet Towel Smart dryers help maintain.


With such high levels of homelessness in Brighton – double the national average – the demand on the centre is high. At the busiest times, there is a temptation to not dry hands thoroughly, which can potentially increase bacterial spread. The Jet Towel Smart's speed of drying means users rarely fall into this trap.
