Christmas Gifts on Motorbikes! BULLETINJanuary/February 2020 Christmas gifts on motorbikes! Bromley Mencap is very grateful to the Bromley Children and Families Voluntary Sector Forum for organising a fantastic collection of Christmas gifts and toys which our members and service users benefited from. It was a great day - the Widows Sons Masonic Bikers (West Kent) turned out on their amazing motorbikes, in full Christmas gear, at Anerley Town Hall on 14th December. The range of gifts was second to none and all were collected by the Masons or bought with funds they had raised. The Mayor of Bromley, Cllr Nicholas Bennett, said a few words and many organisations benefited from the gifts for their members and beneficiaries.

  • Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue Is a Signifi Cant Theatre-Specifi C Environmental Project Being Run by the Theatres Trust
    Introduction to Ecovenue Ecovenue is a signifi cant theatre-specifi c environmental project being run by The Theatres Trust. It aims to improve the environmental performance of forty-eight London theatres and raise awareness of how to make theatres greener. Ecovenue is promoting the sustainability of theatres and the reduction of carbon emissions through the provision of free theatre-specifi c, environmental advice. The project started in 2009 and runs until 2012. Forty-eight venues each undergo an Environmental Audit, and receive a Display Energy Certifi cate (DEC) and Advisory Report. They track their energy use through SMEasure. Each venue receives a second DEC a year after their fi rst to measure progress. Ecovenue includes a ‘DEC Pool’ of performing arts venues across the UK that have obtained DECs. The DEC Pool helps us to evaluate the project and share best practice and information, establish meaningful benchmarks, and provide a better understanding of energy use of theatres. Any theatre can join the DEC Pool. The Trust’s Theatres Magazine provides quarterly reports on the participants and the work of the Ecovenue project. The Theatres Trust Ecovenue project receives fi nancial support from the European Regional Development Fund.
