Carpets • Curtains The new shop was where John Harper and Fred Pye first met and worked together 40 years ago. Over the last 29 years since inception, Harper & Pye has built a first class reputation for the supply and installation of quality carpets, curtains and fitted bedrooms. No job is too small or too large.

We prefer our customers to loan samples and try them in their own home which helps tremendously to negate mistakes.
We have a 20 page booklet you can download on interior design at our website www.harperandpye.co.uk. We are a member of the Metro Buying Group who with a £60,000,000 collective turnover allows us to purchase and sell carpets keenly.
We do a lot of domestic and contract work like the Grand Theatre Blackpool which we have carpeted twice throughout in 1992 and again in 2007. We give you very competitive prices, first class workmanship and a personal service that this family run business can best provide “we care about our name above the door”. We are very excited about our new shop which we believe gives you an unrivalled choice of quality carpets and curtains. Choosing new furnishings is made easy with help from experienced staff with free advice on colour schemes.
There is easy parking outside the door and believe we offer you the best prices and service you can achieve. We offer the price promise “if told never undersold” and throughout the year we have seasonal sales with even further discounts. “Why not try us first before you furnish your home”. You won’t be disappointed.

JACK’S STORY CYSTIC FIBROSIS SUFFERER GIVEN VIBRATING BED THAT HELPS KEEP HIM ALIVE WHILST HE SLEEPS A little boy can breathe a little easier after being donated a vibrating bed which shakes loose dangerously high levels of mucus from his lungs while he sleeps. Jack Johnstone, six, suffers from a severe form of Cystic Fibrosis, which has led him to be hospitalised monthly, as he battles life-threatening infections caused by a build-up of the mucus on his chest.Before the arrival of the bed, Jack’s parents Tina and Kevin, 33, from Preston, were told by Doctors that Jack’s quality of life and life expectancy had been reduced after a series of infections caused ‘serious deterioration’ to his chest. But thanks to the donation, Jack’s condition is better than ever and after just one month of sleeping in the bed, his lung capacity has increased by eight per cent. It works by vibrating at different levels on different areas of Jack’s back to loosen the sticky fluid enabling him to cough it up, in turn saving his life. Mrs Johnstone, 38, said: ‘Jack has never coughed up any mucus in the whole of his life. ‘But since he has had the bed, he’s started clearing it from his chest. It’s amazing; it’s actually saving his life.’ The bed uses Cyclo-Therapy, a form of massage therapy that helps people with breathing problems
as well as a number of other medical conditions. For respiratory problems like Cystic Fibrosis, the gentle 3-way vibrations rotate and pulsate to help mobilise mucus, giving sufferers a better chance of expelling from the lungs. Cycloidal Therapy is used to treat vascular disease ,skeletal and Muscular pain.circulation problems and other conditions. A spokesperson from Niagara Adjustamatic beds said: ‘We had the pleasure of meeting Jack and his family earlier this year and delighted to be able to help by donating one of our Adjustamatic beds.” If you would like to find out more about Niagara products and to try the Therapy please call Andrew Mann on 0800 037 2994.
