It includes data on carbon emissions which shows a 3 per cent reduction in the carbon footprint of the UK’s 18 largest airports in the last two years – despite passenger numbers increasing by more than 5 per cent and air traffic by almost 2 per cent during the same period. At a launch event at the House of Commons the report was welcomed by politicians from across the political spectrum. The Aviation Minister, Robert Goodwill MP, said UK airports could be proud of the efforts they had made to improve their sustainability, while Labour Shadow Minister, Gordon Marsden MP, said the report would assist with evidence-driven policy making. Stephen Gilbert MP, the Liberal Democrat Chair of the Regional Aviation All Party Parliamentary Group, said the report was a useful reminder that the ‘enemy’ was not airports or airlines, but carbon and noise. 2 Passenger experience Random acts strike the right note For several years National Customer Service Week has served as a platform for initiatives to further enhance the passenger experience at Bristol Airport, but this October the team took a particularly creative approach. Airport staff were empowered to deliver ‘random acts of kindness’ to customers, ranging from free car washes in the Silver Zone car park to goody bags for children. The ‘random acts’ were well received by passengers, who were delighted to receive an extra special start to their holiday or business trip!

  • Response to House of Commons DCMS Select Committee Inquiry on the Impact of Covid-19
    Response to House of Commons DCMS Select Committee inquiry on the Impact of Covid-19 June 2020 Introduction 1. TAC (Teledwyr Annibynnol Cymru) represents the independent television production sector in Wales. Our sector is a highly important element of the creative industries in Wales and the UK overall, providing economic, social and cultural benefits through supplying creative content. There are around 50 companies in the sector, ranging from sole traders to some of the leading players in the UK production industry. They produce content for the BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Channel 5 and Sky as well as other commercial broadcasters. They produce almost all of the original television and online media content for the Welsh-language broadcaster S4C, and a variety of radio productions for UK-wide networks. 2. In recent years, Wales’ reputation as a centre of first-class drama production has grown significantly with productions such as 15 Days, Un Bore Mercher / Keeping Faith, Bang, Craith / Hidden and Y Gwyll / Hinterland. Our sector also offers a great deal of expertise in genres such as factual documentary, children’s programmes, sport and entertainment. Overseas programme and format sales have increased, and our members are also experienced in international co-productions. Answers to Specific Committee Questions What has been the immediate impact of Covid-19 on the sector? 3. As with all industries, the TV production sector has faced significant challenges due to the impact of Covid-19 and the introduction of necessary social distancing measures. Productions have been cancelled or postponed and a wide range of programme genres have been affected.

  • Carol Vorderman, Despite Having Spent 30 Years on National TV, Written Countless Books and Fronted Many Successful Commercial Ventures
    wellbeing CELEBRITY LIVES There’s nothing diva-ish about Carol Vorderman, despite having spent 30 years on national TV, written countless books and fronted many successful commercial ventures. Interviewing her is more like chatting to an old friend. She resolutely refuses to take herself seriously and politely shuns any attempt at flattery. Vorderman laughs off the suggestion that she is a fabulous advert for someone who has turned 50. “Well, 51,” she gently corrects, with a reassuring insistence on numerical accuracy. And why not? This woman is smart in every way and she knows it. People often talk of the confidence of youth, but the former Countdown presenter has a far more deep-rooted confidence, born of long-standing success and of being comfortable in her own skin. “That’s kind of you to say, but it’s all about making small adjustments to be healthy, without being obsessive,” she says. “First and foremost, I should point out that I am a workaholic. I put in lots and lots of very long hours, often for days on end, and I always have done.

  • Overview of Regional Airports – Maximising the Benefits for Birmingham
    Overview of Regional Airports – Maximising the Benefits for Birmingham A report from Overview & Scrutiny Birmingham City Council, 09 June 2009 Foreword By Cllr Timothy Huxtable Chairman, Regeneration O&S Committee 09 June 2009 In many recent debates at City Council meetings, the important role of transport infrastructure in increasing economic growth, job and wealth creation and investment in Birmingham (and the wider region) has been discussed in great detail. Included in this debate is the importance of Birmingham as a global city and the need for excellent international links. To fulfil the City Council's intention of becoming a truly "global city with a local heart", Birmingham requires world class national and international gateways – Birmingham International Airport being one such gateway. The proposed extension of the runway at Birmingham International Airport will bring many challenges but at the same time should create many opportunities and it is the identification of these opportunities and how they can be maximised for the benefit of Birmingham and its citizens that this report seeks to grasp. These opportunities includes the "economic multiplier" effect to the local economy of encouraging companies and organisations to locate events at the NEC or ICC; the tourists we can attract with the city and region’s varied attractions; and the inward investment that can be secured as a result of quick and easy links to other major business centres. This Overview looks at maximising the benefits for Birmingham of Birmingham International Airport, and in particular Birmingham International Airport and its proposed runway extension. For Birmingham (and the wider region) to capitalise on growth in the global economy and to bring jobs and investment to our city, Birmingham International Airport needs to have a runway capable of making direct connexions to these global growth areas.
