Central 2020/21 www.theentertainmentguide.co.uk 5 INTRODUCTION entral Scotland is a sometimes forgotten strip nestled between the bustling cities of Glasgow and Edinburgh, and just below the Highlands. Yet it has plenty to offer with a wealth of charming scenery, historic landmarks and a variety of attractions, restaurants and shopping experiences. The latest edition of the Entertainment Guide for Central Scotland can help you to plan your itinerary and find the best that the area has to offer. Walkers and nature lovers will be blissfully content with Central Scotland’s stunning scenery and amazing trails. Walk beside the ‘bonnie bonnie banks’ of Loch Lomond, or take in the dramatic peaks and forests of the Trossachs, made famous by Sir Walter Scott. Just a short drive away from both Edinburgh and Glasgow, this is a perfect getaway from city life and a chance to explore the majestic natural side of Scotland. With a range of fine hotels available, from quaint boutiques to renowned chains, you’re bound to find an option to suit both your taste and budget. For those who appreciate their history, Central Scotland is home to some rich and varied landmarks. Stirling Castle, with its impenetrable walls, endless battlements and cannon ports, offers a fascinating insight into medieval life, including its stunningly restored Great Hall which dates from 1501. The National Wallace Monument, Stirling Castle and Bannockburn are all must-see attractions that document Scotland’s turbulent past. For a glimpse at Scotland’s more industrial history, the Falkirk Wheel is the world’s only rotating boat-lift. As one of Scotland’s oldest burghs, Perth also has its fair share of tales to tell; learn about the city’s leather industry on the Skinnergate and visit St. John’s Kirk to discover the connections which link it to Charles II and John Knox. Central Scotland isn’t all scenery and castles though. With the busy cities of Stirling and Perth begging to be explored, there’s plenty of more contemporary attractions, including well- equipped shopping centres, quirky independent stores, bars, restaurants and theatres. Falkirk also has a range of boutique shops and traditional cafes. 6 For offers and promotions: @entguide_fife Central 2020/21 Central Scotland has it all, providing a popular destination for visitors to explore the beautiful countryside, take part in outdoor activities such as golf, fishing, cycling or watersports, check out some history and culture, or just relax with some retail therapy and the kind of quality food and drink Scotland is known for. There’s bound to be something to suit your tastes, so make sure you don’t miss on the best places to visit and check out the Entertainment Guide. Whether you’re visiting Central Scotland for business, pleasure or a little bit of both, keep this publication close at hand. The Entertainment Guide contains everything you need to turn a pleasant stay into an unforgettable one. Since the brand launch in 2000, visitors to our national website have requested recognition for the best venues throughout Great Britain and Ireland. Obviously this is very difficult with a wide range of top establishments which feature within the guides. What I decided to do was acknowledge these requests by the general public by awarding a Certificate of Excellence, which over the years now adorn the walls and receptions of many businesses. So keep posting the comments and remember if you appear in your city edition, you have been recommended or reviewed by us, so keep up the high standards. www.theentertainmentguide.co.uk Remember...this is the original Entertainment Guide... accept no other!!

The integration of the design and construction process lacked cohesion. It became apparent that members of the design team didn’t work together particularly well. The GSHP ground pipes were designed to a depth of 150 m but on construction it was not possible to drill below 90 m. The result of this was that 17 boreholes were required rather than the planned 11, which significantly increased the cost of the build.

  • Silent Auction
    JUST IMAGINE... It feels wonderful to say, “Welcome to the 38th Annual Saint Bede Auction.” We are ready to celebrate that we are together! Whether on campus, on-line or on your phone, please join us as we come together as a community for our most important fundraiser of the year. For more than 130 years, Saint Bede has been committed to the spiritual, academic and personal success of our students, preparing them with the confidence, skills and character it takes to thrive in a rapidly changing world. By nurturing strong Catholic virtues and moral values, each Saint Bede graduate is prepared to enter into society. In a year where instruction could be virtual, in-person or a mix of both, our faculty and staff at Saint Bede demonstrated our commitment to ensure students had the tools they needed to learn, grow, and thrive right here on campus. We were able to achieve these goals because of your continuous prayers, support and financial assistance. Our Catholic faith calls each of us to respond to the needs of others by sharing God’s love. While the pandemic has forced us to rethink many things, it also has occasioned reflection on how we carry out our mission into the future. Indeed, it has awakened us to how much our mission of community and hospitality, inspired by our Benedictine values, makes us distinctive among institutions of secondary education. Yes, we are proud of our rigorous education experience, but we accomplish that with care and compassion, especially this past school year. Never has care and compassion been needed more.
