Our vision
Improving our quality of life
When Peter Thornton was a boy, the life expectancy for men was 60 and for women it was 65. These days it is 78 for men and 82 for women. It is a wonderful thing that our lives have been extended. This is a result of improved medical provision, a healthier lifestyle, a better quality of life and better education. However, it is a sad fact that in many ways, our quality of life is not nearly as good as it should be. We are living much longer but in our old age, we often suffer from illnesses and ailments which were previously not thought to be a problem. As a result, these products were produced to improve the quality of life for thin skin sufferers.
