Adrian Jackson has been leading the Garrick since 2006. He will join the Grand on a full-time basis when he leaves his current post in the summer. Commenting on the appointment, Jeremy Brown, Chairman of the Board of Trustees at Wolverhampton Grand Theatre, said: “On behalf of the board I would like to say how thrilled we are on the appointment of Adrian Jackson. It’s an exciting time for the theatre, and we look forward to working with Adrian and the whole Grand Theatre team in the years to come.” Artist’s impression of the expansion More adventures in Thomas Land A massive £2.5million expansion is set to transform Drayton Manor Theme Park’s famous Thomas Land, increasing its size by a whopping forty percent. The only one of its kind in Europe, the Staffordshire theme park’s Thomas Land is a celebration of the adventures of Thomas The Tank Engine and friends. The expansion will include three brand new rides - Flynn’s Fire Rescue, Captain’s Sea Adventure and Toby’s Tram Express - and a ‘stunning’ new two-storey Sodor Airport terminal. Commenting on the expansion, Colin Bryan, CEO of Drayton Manor Theme Park, said: “This year marks the sixty-fifth anniversary of Drayton Manor, and throughout our long history we’ve always prided ourselves on offering a fun day out for the whole family. That was the reasoning behind the launch of Thomas Land in 2008. Adrian Jackson Since then the area has gone from strength to strength and has provided an immersive expe- rience for fans both young and old. We are delighted to be extending it this year with all these fantastic new rides and facilities for our visitors to enjoy.” The expanded Thomas Land will Festival celebrates ten years open over Easter. of walking in Ironbridge Income from sales is spent protecting, Organisers behind the annual Ironbridge up the building’s front façade.

  • Badminton England Strategy 2017-2025
    So many great things have happened across English badminton in recent years. Marcus Ellis and Chris Langridge created history at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games when they won Great Britain’s first ever Men’s Doubles Medal, Chris and Gabby Adcock won the World Superseries Finals Mixed Doubles title in 2015, badminton secured its position as the nation’s most popular racket sport with almost 1m people playing every month, year on year the Yonex All England just got bigger and better with record breaking crowds attending the 107th Championships, we successfully bid for the Yonex All England to be recognised among the top 3 ‘majors’ of world badminton, our member and fan base grew to more than 150,000 people, we welcomed new commercial and broadcast partners to the organisation and we have experienced massive growth in digital engagement across the various platforms. Just some of the amazing achievements that provide the platform to deliver even greater growth and success for English badminton. Discover Badminton is a clear statement of intent to do just that. The development of the strategy involved more than 50 consultation days spanning the length and breadth of the country involving many County Badminton Associations, clubs, leagues, coaches and members. The message we heard was very clear; more badminton in schools, more support to clubs, more people playing and competing, more volunteers and increased help to the current volunteer workforce and more coaches when they are needed. We listened and we understood and the ‘asks’ of us are embedded into Discover Badminton. Discover Badminton is also a welcoming statement to anyone who wants to take part in our great sport.
