The hotel, which has a keen emphasis on reducing its impact on the environment and was awarded “Considerate Hotel of the Year 2007”, is offering its guests an alternative workout to the normal hotel gym. Residents of the hotel are invited to attend these rigorous BMF sessions with the hotel’s compliments. The BMF classes are run by serving or ex-armed forces physical training instructors with recognised fitness training qualifications.

The classes take place in the beautiful parks of London and are a great opportunity to take in the scenery London has to offer. Making use of the great outdoors and using no equipment, apart from what nature provides, means these workouts are the lowest carbon footprint form of exercise you can do.

  • Battersea Area Guide
    Battersea Area Guide Living in Battersea and Nine Elms Battersea is in the London Borough of Wandsworth and stands on the south bank of the River Thames, spanning from Fairfield in the west to Queenstown in the east. The area is conveniently located just 3 miles from Charing Cross and easily accessible from most parts of Central London. The skyline is dominated by Battersea Power Station and its four distinctive chimneys, visible from both land and water, making it one of London’s most famous landmarks. Battersea’s most famous attractions have been here for more than a century. The legendary Battersea Dogs and Cats Home still finds new families for abandoned pets, and Battersea Park, which opened in 1858, guarantees a wonderful day out. Today Battersea is a relatively affluent neighbourhood with wine bars and many independent and unique shops - Northcote Road once being voted London’s second favourite shopping street. The SW11 Literary Festival showcases the best of Battersea’s literary talents and the famous New Covent Garden Market keeps many of London’s restaurants supplied with fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers. Nine Elms is Europe’s largest regeneration zone and, according the mayor of London, the ‘most important urban renewal programme’ to date. Three and half times larger than the Canary Wharf finance district, the future of Nine Elms, once a rundown industrial district, is exciting with two new underground stations planned for completion by 2020 linking up with the northern line at Vauxhall and providing excellent transport links to the City, Central London and the West End.

  • LOW EMISSION BUS ZONES: EVALUATION of the FIRST SEVEN ZONES November 2018
    LOW EMISSION BUS ZONES: EVALUATION OF THE FIRST SEVEN ZONES November 2018 LOW EMISSION BUS ZONES: EVALUATION OF THE FIRST SEVEN ZONES COPYRIGHT Greater London Authority November 2018 Published by Greater London Authority City Hall The Queen’s Walk More London London SE1 2AA www.london.gov.uk enquiries 020 7983 4000 minicom 020 7983 4458 ISBN Photographs © Copies of this report are available from www.london.gov.uk LOW EMISSION BUS ZONES: EVALUATION OF THE FIRST SEVEN ZONES 3 Introduction In August 2016 the Mayor of London announced London’s first Low Emission Bus Zone programme. A total of twelve Low Emission Bus Zones are planned across London. This report reviews the progress to date now that over half of the Low Emission Bus Zones are in operation. All the remaining zones will be complete by the end of 2019. What is a Low Emission Bus Zone? Low Emission Bus Zones use buses with top-of-the-range engines and exhaust systems that meet or exceed the highest Euro VI emissions standards1. The zones have been prioritised in the worst air quality hotspots outside central London where buses contribute significantly to road transport emissions. All TfL buses operating in the central London Ultra Low Emission Zone will meet the Euro VI standard from April 2019. The first zone was introduced along Putney High Street in March 2017 and was followed by a second Low Emission Bus Zone between Brixton Road and Streatham High Road in December 2017. All 12 zones are set to be completed in 2019 and form a central part of the Mayor's far- reaching plans for a drastic clean-up of London's toxic air.
