Universiteit van Buckingham

De Universiteit van Buckingham (UB), voorheen University College at Buckingham (UCB) is een non-profit, uiterst soevereine, private besloten universiteit gesitueerd in de Engelse plaats Buckingham, aan de oevers van de rivier de Great Ouse. De universiteit is een van de zes private instellingen in Groot Brittannië en de oudste aldaar. Het is de enige private universiteit die het Royal Charter mag voeren. Buckingham is nauw verbonden met Margaret Thatcher, die als minister van Onderwijs toezicht hield op de oprichting van het toenmalige universiteitscollege in 1973 en als premier een belangrijke rol speelde bij het verheffen ervan tot universiteit in 1983 sinds dit mogelijk werd door het University Grants Committee in 1919. Toen ze zich in 1992 terugtrok uit de politiek, werd Thatcher kanselier van de universiteit. Formeel is de universiteit een instelling zonder winstoogmerk die zich inzet voor de doeleinden van onderzoek en onderwijs. Buckingham's financiën werken volledig op studentengelden en schenkingen; het ontvangt geen directe overheidsfinanciering. De kwaliteit van de universiteit wordt, net als bij andere Britse universiteiten, gehandhaafd door een extern examinatorsysteem (d.w.z. professoren van andere universiteiten houden toezicht op en rapporteren over examens en gradering), door een academische adviesraad (bestaande uit een reeks vakspecialistische academici van andere universiteiten) en door lidmaatschap van het Quality_Assurance_Agency_for_Higher_Education (QAA). De instelling biedt studies aan in geneeskunde, rechten, economie en politiek. Elk van deze faculteiten wordt voorgezeten door een eigen decaan. Buckingham’s departement voor veiligheid- en inlichtingenstudies (BUCSIS), het Centre for Security and Intelligence Studies, is een centrum voor onderzoek naar de belangrijkste nationale en internationale veiligheids- en inlichtingenkwesties. BUCSIS is geaccrediteerd door zowel het Britse als Amerikaanse ministerie van defensie en werkt samen met een aantal hoge militaire academies, zoals de Poolse War Studies Academy. Tevens behoort BUCSIS tot het netwerk van erkende partners van het European Security and Defence College (ESDC).

Pimlico District Heating Undertaking

The Pimlico District Heating Undertaking (PDHU) is a district heating system in Pimlico, City of Westminster, United Kingdom. The first district heating system built in the United Kingdom, it is owned by Westminster City Council and operated by CityWest Homes. The system is connected to 3,256 homes, 50 business premises and three schools. History The system began operations in 1950, and originally used waste heat from Battersea Power Station, which was pumped under the River Thames through a disused Metropolitan Water Board tunnel. A thermal store was built in Churchill Gardens, which could hold 2,300m³ and remains the largest thermal store in the UK. The system was originally built to serve 1,600 council homes. By 1958 Battersea was operating with a thermal efficiency of 25%, making it one of the world's most efficient power stations at the time. After Battersea Power Station closed in 1983, a 30MW coal-fired boiler was built to supply the system with heat. The boiler was subsequently converted to gas in 1989. A refurbishment in 2006 saw two 1.55MWe CHP engines and three 8MW gas boilers installed. The system generates around 51GWh of heat and 16GWh of electricity per year. Based on the operational success of the Pimlico undertaking several schemes were proposed, and one was partly built, using waste heat from Bankside power station. However, none were economically viable. Updating the system As of 2024 the pipework in the system is beyond its design life. Repairs to the leaking system are disruptive to residents and are expensive. Insulation is also substandard. Westminster City Council is considering various options, either to update the centralised system, or decommissioning it and providing heating and hot water independently to individual properties by direct electric heating References

Hotel Football

Hotel Football is an upscale football-themed hotel overlooking Old Trafford, the home of Manchester United F.C., in Trafford, England. It is owned by former players Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt, Phil Neville and Gary Neville, as well as the GG Hospitality Management Company. The hotel was built at a cost of £24 million and features 133 rooms, a restaurant called Cafe Football and a five-a-side football pitch on the roof. It opened in March 2015. History Gary Neville initially purchased a plot of land underneath a canal bridge close to Old Trafford from a group of Manchester United F.C. fans who owned the land with the intention of building a club house. They agreed to sell Neville the land to build a hotel on, providing he promised to build a greyhound track as part of the hotel. In 2011 Stuart Procter, former general manager of the Stafford Hotel in London, was drafted in to mastermind the build and development of a football-themed hotel by members of The Class of '92, the idea behind the hotel being to hark back to the golden era of football of the 1990s, before ticket prices soared 1,000 per cent, pricing out many fans. The construction of the hotel was handled by Galliford Try and features subtle football references throughout the building. In May 2014, to promote the construction of the hotel and its impending opening, the ex-players involved in financing the construction played a game of five-a-side football on the roof of the hotel against a team of builders involved in the construction. In November 2014, Gary Neville won permission to put a 16 m × 12 m (52 ft × 39 ft) five-a-side football pitch on top of the ten-storey hotel, a previous application had been approved in May of that year but changes to the design meant a resubmission was required. Manchester United F.C. objected to the plan, claiming the scheme on the site of a former lard factory undermined the "holistic vision" of its "strategic plan" for the area. Facilities Old Trafford Supporters Club, a 550-capacity basement bar with TV screens and a terrace. Cafe Football, a 185-seat restaurant with a menu overseen by two-Michelin-star chef Michael Wignall of the Pennyhill Park Hotel. Heaven, a bookable five-a-side astroturf pitch which on match days turns into a bar and barbecue area. Hotel Football also offers services to companies who wish to host events with two separate function rooms. The Professional Football Scouts Association currently hold their Scouting Courses within the Players Lounge. References External links Official Hotel Football website
