We recently had a visit from Angela Dawson from stoke based charity Dougie Mac, Dougie Mac do lots of amazing charity work for Staffordshire and surrounding areas.

Every year Dougie Mac provide free hospice services to adults, young adults, and children facing life-limiting illnesses in Stoke-on-Trent, North Staffordshire, and all nearby villages. They also provide supportive care for the families and caregivers of these individuals.

Our dedicated staff and volunteers are at the heart of everything we do, ensuring we provide exceptional care. We go above and beyond to create a warm, friendly, and peaceful environment, whether at the hospice or in a family’s home.

At Dougie Mac, we are committed to continually expanding and enhancing our services, always aiming to deliver the highest quality of care to meet the evolving needs of our local community.

Having provided care for adults in the area for nearly fifty years, we are proud to now include services for children and young adults. This enables us to offer a comprehensive range of specialist palliative and end-of-life care for individuals of all ages.

Nationwide Lift Services regularly donate to Dougie Mac and we love everything they do. We also partake in many of their events. A few months ago, one of our engineers did a charity run for them, he managed to raise over £1500 for the charity from family, friends, and colleagues.

We provide Dougie Mac with free lift maintenance visits, and we do their lift repairs for free too, we are proud to be a member of their business club. We have done lots of work for them and other charities in our time as a lift company. Furthermore, we firmly believe in giving back to the community.

If you are having any issues with your lifts, please contact us or call our 24/7 helpline.

Nationwide Lift Services have kept the ball rolling by securing yet another sponsorship deal with Port Vale Football Club, approved by our managing director, Paul Robinson. This is our second sponsorship of the year after Dougie Mac.

Port Vale Football Club is based in Staffordshire and is only around 10 minutes away from our head office. It is one of only two English league clubs whose names aren’t taken from a geographical location, with Arsenal being the other.

The History Of Port Vale Football Club

Port Vale was founded in 1876, after a meeting, where the football club took its name. It has a rich history, and they won the football league trophy in 1993. It is a pleasure to have the honour of sponsoring them. Several of our engineers are avid fans of Port Vale, and they regularly attend the matches.

Our Visit To The Stadium

A lot of our loyal customers are based in Staffordshire, and lots of them also attend Port Vale’s games, we hope our board will reach the right people and feed us more business, while giving back to the local community. Sponsorship of Port Vale helps us connect with our community.

Our salesperson Jamie Tappenden paid them a visit and met Oliver Hickman, we looked around the stadium, and we enjoyed viewing the stadium.

While we have completed lift projects for numerous local care homes, private hospitals, and colleges, we also provide services across the UK.

Nationwide Lift Services are thrilled to share some exciting news about a major project we’re currently undertaking! We’re collaborating with a prominent high street retailer to upgrade the lift communication systems in approximately 80 of their stores across the nation. Our success in this project is thanks to the hard work of our dedicated engineer team.

With the upcoming BT digital switch, it’s crucial to ensure all lifts are future-ready. To achieve this, we’re installing GSM units, which will keep everything running smoothly and in compliance with the new regulations. Our dedicated engineer is tirelessly travelling across the UK to complete these installations, ensuring each lift is prepared for the significant digital transition. A dedicated engineer truly makes a difference.

This project is a fantastic opportunity for us, and we’re proud to help our clients stay ahead of the curve. By upgrading to GSM units, we’re guaranteeing that their lifts will have reliable, digital connections. This means that emergency calls can be made without any issues once the switch takes place.

We want to give a big shoutout to our dedicated engineer and the entire team who are making this happen. Their hard work and dedication are prime examples of the commitment we have at Nationwide Lift Services to provide essential solutions and support for our clients. This project not only highlights our technical expertise but also our dedication to customer satisfaction and safety.

We’re excited about the progress we’re making and look forward to continuing to deliver top-notch service and innovative solutions. Stay tuned for more updates as we move forward with this significant project, driven by our dedicated engineer!

One of our engineers recently discovered what appeared to be a treasure map, sparking a lot of curiosity. Could this map lead to ancient, hidden treasures? Or perhaps to an underground city lost in time? As it turns out, this intriguing find was actually a planning map for a lift installed in 1970—making it an impressive 54 years old. The lift was originally installed by Bennie Lifts Limited, a company founded in 1934, which has since gone into liquidation. This old lift map has quite a history.

Finding this old lift map was fascinating; it looked like something straight out of a pirate movie! But it’s just one of the many interesting things we’ve come across during our years of repairing lifts.

In over 30 years of service, we’ve worked on hundreds of lifts, both old and new, and encountered all sorts of unusual sights—like lift pits filled with cutlery (they certainly had to “fork” out for that!) or vintage lift maps. Through it all, we’ve maintained our commitment to providing excellent customer service and focusing on fixing issues on the first visit to save you money on repairs. Among the most intriguing finds was the old lift map.

We also offer traditional lift maintenance, where our engineers spend extra time on site, thoroughly inspecting for both minor and major issues, helping to prevent costly future repairs. Our team has seen a variety of lift maps, some quite old.

If you have an old lift, we recommend a lift modernisation. Feel free to keep the old lift map somewhere! We would love to see it.

If you manage care homes, schools, colleges, or NHS facilities and find yourself dealing with frequent lift issues, reach out to us. We have extensive experience working with both large care home groups and individual homes, so you’re in safe hands with us as your lift service provider. We understand the critical importance of reliable lift operation for your staff, residents, and visitors, and we are dedicated to keeping your lifts running smoothly while minimising costs. If you happen to find an old lift map in your facility, let us know!
