Richard Haworth Introduces New Bistro Napkins – Press Release April 2017 Richard Haworth – the Manchester based linen supplier – has launched stylish Bistro napkins to complement their already market leading table linen offering. Perfect for casual dining, the napkins are available in three attractive colour stripe options. Established in 1876, the company has long been providing bath, bed and table linens, along with soft furnishings, to the hospitality industry. Indeed its introduction of a cotton-soft polyester table linen range 20 years ago revolutionized the restaurant sector and quickly become the industry standard. Its latest creation bridges the gap between the fine dining aesthetic of pristine tablecloths and the casual setting of paper napkins, offering a high quality napkin which features chic coloured stripes to add a touch of panache to any dining experience. The product, made from 100% jet-spun polyester, has the feel of cotton, yet its increased resilience and toughness make it ideal for the rigours of the hospitality sector. Resistant to snagging and shrinkage, with outstanding absorbency, it is both practical and stylish, perfectly suiting it to its purpose. According to Raj Ruia, managing director: “We’re incredibly excited to unveil our latest collection. The Bistro napkins offer both exceptional quality and a more casual aesthetic, they’re the ideal complement for any table setting.” You can find Richard Haworth linen in venues such as Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons, Wimbledon tennis club, JP Morgan and Home House in London, all of which the business enjoys long- standing relationships with. Richard Haworth supplies quality linen for the bed, bath, dining room and kitchen to a range of different businesses, including hotels, B&Bs, laundries, restaurants and spas.

The past year has seen a number of significant developments in this area, not least the growing involvement of the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF), whose impact was only just starting to be felt a year ago. Work has now started on 20 of the 51 industrial topics identified within the Monuments’ Protection Programme. Work on lead and coal is complete, and we are putting forward proposals for future management of 300 sites including 200 schedulings. Work is almost complete on the alum, brass and gunpowder industries, and is well-advanced on a further seven. At the time of writing (mid-September) we were still awaiting decisions by the Secretary of State for National Heritage on the 32 new listings and four upgradings recommended in September 1995 as a result of the thematic survey of Manchester mills. This was the first thematic survey to be the subject of public consultation; it is therefore disappointing that, as a result of the delay in reaching a decision, five of the candidates for listing have already been damaged or lost through demolition.

Eccles Station News Welcomes Feedback from Readers
ECCLES STATION NEWS AUGUST 2015 NEWS On Thursday 16 Jul 2015 Sir Peter Hendy CBE joined Network Rail as chairman. He said: “Network Rail has a critical role in the railway industry and the whole British economy, by facilitating economic growth and enabling job creation.” Mr Hendy will be based at Network Rail’s head office at Euston. He will work four days a week on a salary of £500,000. Prior to joining Network Rail, Sir Peter Hendy CBE had been Commissioner of Transport for London (TfL) since 2006, having previously served since 2001 as TfL's Managing Director of Surface Transport. Before that he was a Deputy Director UK Bus for FirstGroup and previously Managing Director of CentreWest London Buses. He started his transport career in 1975 as London Transport Graduate Trainee. On the 21st July Network Rail announced that two bridges are to be rebuilt as part of the electrification of the railway between Manchester and Stalybridge. This is despite the “pause” in such projects as a response to increasing costs and time delays. To electrify the line the bridges have to be rebuilt to increase 1 the clearance underneath to accommodate overhead lines which will power trains. The two bridges are: Granville Street: • A road closure at the bridge itself will be required from Monday 27 July 2015 until 23 December 2015. • A temporary footbridge will be constructed in advance of the closure to maintain pedestrian access. This temporary bridge will also be used to carry the diverted utility pipes and cables from within the bridge.
