Interestingly we have recently encountered some resistance from at least
one LEA to consider ergonomic furniture as part of the equipment
requirements, and before you ask, yes I did make a case for the
furniture concerned... The cost of height adjustable (sitting to
standing) desks seems very high but I guess the technology to do this is
expensive.
Just a passing observation

We have used SIS tables and found them to be very strong and long
lasting.
Vari-tech tables are being supplied by Inclusive Technologies to all the
UK
on-line centres.
