If so, you (and your back) should rejoice to hear that we are about to replace our ancient folding chairs. We need to purchase about 200 new ones and would like to know if any of your parishes has bought chairs recently and could give us advice. As you would probably guess, we have not bought chairs for several generations. Here's what we need to know: Would you recommend stacking or folding chairs and why? Would you recommend padded seats and backs? What should we expect to pay for good quality? And is there a source we could go to to get the best price? We would be grateful for any help you could offer, and we hope you will soon have a chance to sit more comfortably in Synod Hall!
