News: Crampton & Moore’s gift to Rotherham Hospital Neonatal Unit

Local appliance and kitchen company Crampton & Moore has supported families at Rotherham Hospital’s refurbished neonatal unit with a special gift.

The award-winning electrical specialist has donated three televisions for rooms in the unit.

The gift was part of the Tiny Toes campaign, which saw a complete refurbishment of the unit to enhance heating, lighting, and accessibility, creating additional space, allowing for the accommodation of up to 16 babies at a time.

“Having a child in the neonatal unit is a time of great anxiety for every parent and we hope that our gift will at least increase their comfort during their time at hospital,” said Crampton & Moore Managing Director Robert Moore.

“As a South Yorkshire company, we are happy to be supporting the South Yorkshire community as we know that the neonatal unit is a much valued resource for the people of Rotherham.”

After a year of fundraising, Rotherham Hospital and Community Charity recently announced that its Tiny Toes appeal has raised £150,000 to transform the hospital’s neonatal unit.

The neonatal unit supports more than 400 babies every year and this is the first time it has been revamped in 40 years.

Crampton & Moore was launched in 1966 to meet increasing demand for more affordable and rentable televisions with the launch of BBC2 and the start of colour broadcasts.

Today the company remains a family business, selling everything from washers and dryers to fridges, freezers, cookers and hobs and the full range of smaller kitchen appliances.

The company moved to Rotherham in 2022 and its Catcliffe superstore was designed to inspire customers with the latest ideas to upgrade their homes, with all the current kitchen design displays, connected smart appliances, designer ranges, eco friendly models and the latest in TV and home cinema experiences.

The company’s online presence has made it one of the country’s leading suppliers of televisions and home cinema, refrigerators, washing machines, dishwashers and now kitchens - with clients including Windsor Castle, Kensington Palace and 10 Downing Street, helping it to reach a turnover of £32m.

News: TV retailer set to grow from new Rotherham premises

Electrical retailer, Crampton and Moore, has secured a seven-figure funding package from HSBC UK to support expansion.

The family-run retailer of televisions and home appliances, has used funding from HSBC UK to acquire the 40,000 sq ft former JTF building in Rotherham.

Rothbiz reported last year that JTF Mega Discount Warehouse had closed its stores, including one in Rotherham, having collapsed into administration.

Crampton and Moore will use the Catcliffe site as a new office space, warehouse and large showroom for its expanding range of products.

The funding from HSBC UK has enabled the business to diversify its product range and helped it achieve more efficient operations. The aim is to improve its delivery and installation service for customers through the expansion of its fleet.

The South Yorkshire company has grown turnover by 20% over the last two years and is now forecasting to double this in the next 24 months. It is set to hire five more employees once the move to Catcliffe is complete and will seek to bring in more delivery drivers as part of its ongoing expansion plans.
