Chelsea Design Quarter Charity Raffle Posted on 22 Oct 08:47 , 0 comments
The Shutter Shop and fellow members of Chelsea Design Quarter (CDQ) will for the second year be supporting the homeless charity Glassdoor by organising a charity raffle to raise funds for this hugely important cause. Due to the pandemic their fundraising has been hugely impacted this year, yet their need to support those affected by homelessness is greater than ever.
The charity is London’s largest open-access network of emergency winter shelters and support services for men and women affected by homelessness. Their vision is of a future where no one has to sleep on the streets of London.
Please help us to support Glass Door by entering the raffle. Tickets for the raffle are £5 and can be purchased from Just Giving: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/chelsea-design-quarter

Glass Door offers shelter, advice and support to those affected by homelessness. They are open to all, space permitting, and do not require guests to fill in long complicated forms to gain access to their services. They are an independent charity and avoid seeking funding which would restrict their open access policy. Learn more about Glass Door here: https://www.glassdoor.org.uk/.
Further information and a full interview with the CEO of Glassdoor can be found on the CDQ website: https://chelseadesignquarter.co.uk/news/qa-with-lucy-abraham-ceo-of-glass-door-homeless-charity/

Share 0 Tweet 0 +1The Shutter Shop has spent more than 35 years helping homeowners find made-to-measure window treatments that work with the character and practical needs of their homes.
This article remains at its original URL as part of our complete journal archive. Its subject connects to the same specialist guidance our surveyors provide today: considering the window proportions, room, privacy requirements, light and the right product material before confirming a design.
A considered approach
Shutters are made to order, so good decisions begin with careful measuring and a clear understanding of how the room is used. Full height, café style and tier-on-tier panels each manage light and privacy differently, while bay windows, special shapes and wide openings need their own design response.
Our team can show you the current range of materials, colours, louvre sizes and hardware during a free home survey.
For confident DIY customers, selected shutter styles can also be measured and configured online. More complex bay, shaped and tracked installations are best discussed with our professional measure-and-fit team.
