Worthington Brougham Furniture

Time for a little thing I like to call Why Is This Still Here?!

This is the Aissa corner sofa, originally made for a company called sofa.com, and it comes with a matching footstool as well. Given the size of the footstool that means you can set it up as a corner sofa with a floating footrest, or as a u-shaped corner sofa. Right now to order one of these with the footstool would cost you a whopping £3736, and ours is just £1475 at the showroom right now.

Reasons why I'm surprised it's still here:
• It's hand built with a solid hardwood frame, which makes it really sturdy
• The colour is pretty fabulous, like a pale blue/green
• Really comfy to sit on, especially if you're the sort of person who likes to curl up on the sofa or sprawl a bit
• Feather mix fillings and the fabric is 83% cotton so it has a luxury feel

Some of our favourites from this week! Sofas, armchairs and suites, all in stock from our discounted display ranges, plus a couple of sneaky order in options too. ♥

Whether you're looking to create a cosy corner, or just stop people stubbing their toes on the stairs, we've got you covered. There's a great selection of lamps and lighting at our Chorley showroom, all from a reputable British brand and discounted up to 75% cheaper than anywhere else on the high street. Everything from dramatic hallway lighting to fancy floor lamps, all in stock ready for you to take away today - we're here until 5pm.

We've been talking - me (Isabelle), my dad Len and Amy - about what's wrong with newsfeeds, why they're so relentlessly negative and what we, as a small business trying to get seen online, can do about it.

"If someone came up to you in the street, told you World War III was right around the corner, and then tried to sell you a new phone plan, you wouldn’t hang around for the sales pitch would you? Of course you wouldn’t – that sounds nuts, and you’re probably wondering what the heck we’re going on about. But social media, newsfeed sites and all the local news outlets online are doing exactly that all day every day, and somehow the poor bewildered folk left staring at the screen are the ones getting the blame."

Newspapers and media outlets are using fear to drive engagement without any concern for the impact that has on people’s wellbeing. All just to sell you something featured in an ad which drives their revenues. I’ve no objection to people making money in business, but when it has the scope it has now it affects all of us.

How many times have you read a story on Facebook and found yourself thinking, “hang on, I’ve seen this before?”. Only to discover it was first published in 2019?
We at Worthington Brougham Furniture believe that mental wellbeing is more important than the sales hook. We support the British people’s right to be entertained, not influenced.

Accessories and lighting make such a big difference to how a sofa looks. Would you believe this is the same one? Absolutely love the fabric on this sofa . com Aissa chaise and footstool combo but it certainly looks different in natural light!
