The British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA) is the UK's oldest and largest healthcare association (founded in 1917).
Its membership - of some 350 companies employing over 17,000 people - comprises both large and small businesses across the many non-pharmaceutical sectors of the healthcare industry, manufacturing, supplying and serving those with special physical needs and specialist healthcare areas, too. The products they make and supply are as varied as wheelchairs and scooters, stairlifts, seating and positioning products, patient support surfaces, rehabilitation products, stoma and continence products, aids and services for visually impaired people, and even prosthetics and orthotics.
The BHTA is closely involved with developing industry and product standards, maintaining and improving on product choice, quality and, above all, safety. The BHTA works tirelessly to protect its' members and your interests through constant and close liaison with the many government departments and agencies as well as charities and other bodies involved in delivering healthcare services.
