A strong future for AKW following buyout

AKW, a leading provider of accessible shower and kitchen solutions, has announced the appointment of Nick Parsons as Group CEO and Ruth Ingledew as Managing Director, following a company buyout to Pennant Park in March.  

Parsons, who previously worked for AKW until 2011, has many years of experience managing businesses and he brings with him a wealth of industry and core customer links within the reduced mobility sector. Ingledew, who also previously worked for AKW until 2012 as Marketing Director has spent the past six years as CEO of myaware, a UK charity focusing on the condition of myasthenia.  As Managing Director of AKW, she will be looking to build the company’s brand still further in the reduce mobility sector.
