Edward Williams and Ross Connock of PwC have been appointed joint administrators of Airsprung Group PLC and Airsprung Furniture Limited (Airsprung/the Companies) on 1 May 2026.

Headquartered in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, Airsprung is a manufacturer of mattresses and beds which are sold to customers directly at its Trowbridge shop, on-line or manufactured for and distributed by other retailers. It operates from two manufacturing locations in Trowbridge.

The Companies have experienced difficult trading conditions in recent years and increasing cashflow challenges over the last few months. In response, Airsprung explored potential investment and offers for the business but given the cashflow position and the level and nature of interest, the directors had no choice but to place the company in administration.

PWC have appointed CAPA to carry out an rates audit over the properties.

Zelf Hussain, Rachael Wilkinson and Mark (Toby) Banfield of PwC have been appointed as Joint Administrators of National Car Parks Limited (”NCP”) and NCP Empire No.2 Limited (“Empire 2”).

Zelf Hussain, Timothy Higgins and Mark (Toby) Banfield, have been appointed as Joint Administrators of MEIF II CP Holdings 3 Limited (“MEIF 3”) - together (“the Companies”).

The appointments were made on 16 March 2026.

NCP is one of the UK’s largest car park operators, employing around 681 people and managing 340 car parks nationwide, including in major towns and city centres, airports, hospitals and transport hubs.

The Joint Administrators continue to trade the NCP business, however, following the closure of a number of commercially unviable sites on 27 March and 16 April, it has not been possible to reach agreements to enable the continued operation of a further five loss-making sites, and as a result these sites will be closed from 23:59 on 30 April. Please refer to the site closure list and site closure FAQs sections for further details.

NCP’s performance has deteriorated over a number of years post COVID-19 as demand for parking has not recovered to historic levels, particularly across city-centre and commuter locations. Continued shifts in commuting and customer driving patterns have impacted site occupancy, while the high concentration of long-term, inflexible leases has meant NCP has been unable to reduce costs in line with revenue or to exit loss-making sites, resulting in ongoing trading losses. NCP now has insufficient cash available to meet its financial obligations and the Directors have therefore taken the decision to appoint administrators.

The Joint Administrators will engage with landlords and other stakeholders to assess and, where necessary, make changes to the business designed to improve the viability of as many of the sites as possible. A sale of all or part of the business will be explored as one of the options to secure the best outcome for creditors. The Administrators will continually review the viability of each location, and depending on the outcome of discussions with stakeholders, there may need to be site closures as part of the process.

Struggling handbag brand Radley has been acquired out of administration by LK Bennett owner Gordon Brothers.

The acquisition includes the Radley brand and related intellectual property. However, the brand’s two shops and 19 concessions will close at the end of the summer after their stock has been sold.

Administrators at FTI Consulting said the administration had followed “a sustained period of challenging economic conditions for the retail environment”.

In a statement, Gordon Brothers said the firm will drive a growth strategy that expands Radley’s global brand and operations through strategic investments in people, products and marketing.

This will include pursuing an asset-light that focuses strengthening relationships with key retailers, expanding the brand’s international presence, and extending Radley’s product categories beyond handbags, watches, jewellery, eyewear and beauty gifting.

FTI have pointed CAPA to carry out a rates audit over the companies portfolio of 23 properties.

Spark Medical Ltd has been sold in a pre-pack deal that saved around 375 jobs, according to administrators. The company, which is headquartered in Bromborough, the Wirral, provides ambulance services across the North West of England.

Spark employs 97 members of staff and numerous subcontractors, operating as many as 50 medical vehicles daily. it has its own fleet of modern, fully-equipped ambulances and a team of highly-trained and qualified staff, and works in partnership with the NHS​ and private companies.

In August last year, the company acquired Medi 4 Ambulance Services, which provides a broad range of patient transport and pre-hospital care solutions across the south of England, and also has a substantial ambulance fleet.

But in recent times, the combined business had been hit with increased cost commitments and ongoing capital expenditure alongside a drop in revenue, which created pressures on cash flow, administrators RSM UK Restructuring Advisory said.

This led to a creditors’ Administration application being issued on January 19 this year. Lee Van Lockwood and James Miller, both of RSM UK, were appointed as joint administrators.

RSM have appointed CAPA to carry out an rates audit over the property portfolio.

Lavval Restaurants, the group behind Spaghetti House, appointed corporate finance specialist BTG as administrators.

Administrators were hired to help wind down the business and have since shut its remaining five sites, all based in central London.

It is understood the company had already shut three sites in recent months, based in Mayfair, Goodge Street and Fitzrovia.

Spaghetti House was founded by Simone Lavarini in 1955 and remained owned by the family.

The group’s Knightsbridge branch was in the media spotlight in 1975 when three robbers took the restaurant’s staff hostage following a failed robbery.

Luigi Lavarini, executive chairman and chief executive of Lavval Restaurants, said: “After 70 years of serving our loyal customers, it is with a heavy heart that we announce Lavval Restaurants Limited has entered administration and will cease trading".

BTG have appointed CAPA to carry out a full property audit over the 7 properties.
