Abseil 2009
14-05-2009
On Sunday 19th April 2009 our Lauren Browne and Steven Brown joined hundreds of others for a charity event in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. The event was abseiling down the Eagle Tower building. Eagle Tower is the tallest office building in Gloucestershire and at 178ft it’s not hard to see why! Lauren and Steven are familiar with the building’s daunting height and could’ve stopped at the 8th floor for a cup of tea as it is the home of bme partnership. Participants were asked to raise funds for 2 charities: Cotswold Riding for the Disabled and the Gloucestershire Multiple Sclerosis Information and Therapy Centre. Event organiser Dave Stallworthy said that he was hoping over £15000 would be raised. Congratulations to Lauren and Steve who completed the abseil and despite trembling limbs and nervous grins managed to raise £285 in total.

Coln Park in the Cotswolds
Bme partnership are proud to have been one of the first in the UK to specify SP Coils "Thermasail" Radiant Conditioning Sails at Coln Park in the Cotswolds. Coln Park is set in an unspoilt landscape of Six Clear Water Lakes set over 650 acres and comprising 165 glass and timber lakeside homes. Designed by Philippe Stark, Jade Jagger and Julieann Humphreyes, they are carefully constructed to integrate into the natural environment surrounding them.
By harnessing the naturally renewable water from the lakes eco-cooling is easy. We have chosen to use Thermasails as there is virtually Zero impact on the environment. The only power used is for a small water pump. This pump consumes so little energy that unlike wall-mounted systems, operating the cooling sails is effectively cost free.
