The teams have been named for the Hurlingham Polo Assocation's Annual International Polo Day, which will be held at the All England Polo Club at Hickstead on Saturday 20 January. The feature match of the day is the Inspired International Arena Polo Test Match for the Bryan Morrison Trophy, in which England will face Ireland. The last time the two teams met at Hickstead was in 2022, when the home team won 16-13. Captaining England for the first time is Hickstead test match regular Jack Hyde, 26, who plays off an arena handicap of 8. He is joined by Warwickshire-based Matias Amaya (handicap 7) and Sebastian Hancock (5). The England coach (and off-field reserve) is Max Charlton. Facing them will be the trio for Ireland, captained by 8-goaler Richard Tyrone. Experienced arena player Richard will play alongside Michael Henderson (7-goaler) and Hickstead-based Niall Donnelly, who plays off an arena handicap of 5. The Ireland coach reserve is 5-goaler Evan Power. “What an exciting line-up we have for this year’s Bryan Morrison Trophy, with two very strong, equally-matched teams,” says AEPC Chairman John Bunn. “Ireland will be keen to win this match after losing to the home side here in 2022, but England has an excellent track record in the Arena Polo Test Match and I’m sure they’ll be equally keen to extend their winning run at this fixture. We hope lots of polo fans – and newcomers to the sport – will join us for what’s bound to be a superb day of sport.” The day's action will kick off with the British Junior Match, which gets underway at 11.30am. The two teams are Junior Blue, captained by 15-year-old Estanislao Mariano Darritchon (2), with 16-year-old Archie Heseltine (2) and 17-year-old Hugh Bate (1); and Junior Red, captained by Rafi Bruckner (2), with 17-year-old Logan Anderson (2) and 15-year-old Wilfred Bate (1), who is the younger brother of Hugh from the Junior Blue team. This means visitors will get to witness two thrilling games of arena polo for just £8 per ticket when bought in advance, with advance discounts ending on Monday 15 January. After this point, tickets will be £10 when bought online or at the gate. There is also a post-match dinner, held in the Beethoven Suite overlooking Hickstead's famous International Arena. Diners will enjoy three delicious courses, and will have the chance to reflect upon the day’s action with the polo players and various supporters of the sport. Tickets are £60 each, including admission. Hickstead has played host to arena polo since 2006. Unlike summer polo, there are only three members per team instead of four, and the game is played with a larger and softer ball. The arena is also boarded throughout so shots and angles can be played off the sides of the arena, which is much smaller than in the summer version of the game. At the All England Polo Club, the Clubhouse and bar overlook the arena, so visitors are guaranteed a superb view of the action.

Former University of Dundee Rector Stephen Fry praised staff and students as they were awarded public engagement prizes.   The annual Stephen Fry Awards for Public Engagement celebrate the people and projects that engage with wider audiences, and the benefits they bring to society. The awards presentation comes at the end of the University’s Discovery Days talks.    These awards recognised individuals across three categories: Engaged Early-career Researcher, Engaged Researcher, and Engagement Project of the Year, showcasing their pivotal role in enhancing societal benefits while honing their own skills.    The winners were honoured at the annual Discovery Days event on Friday 12 January at the Dalhousie Building, marking a significant moment in acknowledging the transformative power of collaborative public engagement initiatives.   The 2024 Public Engagement Project of the Year was won by ‘Exchanges: Inspiring Parkinson's Conversations’ Project. The Exchanges project was led by the Medical Research Council Protein Phosphorylation and Ubiquitylation Unit based in the University’s School of Life Sciences and engagement consultant, Sarah Patrick. They worked alongside freelance artist Daksha Patel and people with lived experience of Parkinson's.   Professor Miratul, the team’s lead researcher, said, “On behalf of the patients, supporters, researchers and team we are thrilled to receive recognition and hope the work we have done will be to the benefit of the Parkinson’s community.”   Vincenzo Rinaldi has been named Early Researcher of the Year in recognition of his work as a virtual reality specialist at the Leverhulme Research Centre for Forensic Science. His research covers new ways of 3D imaging scenes of investigative interest.    Vincenzo said, “It’s an honour to receive this recognition for my work and I’m looking forward to see what it can achieve in the future.”   Dr Suzanne Duce won the inaugural Engaged Career Researcher of the Year award for her work on science-themed public and school engagement. Amongst many successes, Suzanne has organised science photo competitions in the Schools of Life Sciences and Medicine. Suzanne also wrote and published an illustrated book and designed a comic about the University's drug discovery research.   She said, “I'm thrilled to receive the Engaged Early-career Researcher of the Year award. Public Engagement is very important and it’s so exciting to be a part of it.”   Stephen Fry, the comedian, actor, writer, broadcaster and activist who served two terms as Rector, congratulated the winners in a video message that was played when the winners received their awards.   In the message, he said, “It's given me enormous pride and pleasure to tell you about some of our commended and some of our winning entries.   “But everybody who engages in this sort of out-facing work, if that's the correct verb, this kind of public-facing research and collaboration, is doing something very good, not just for the science, for the academia and academic kudos of Dundee, which seems to grow every day, but also to binding relations between the community in Tayside and Dundee and the great University itself.    “It just makes me so proud that my name is attached to work of this incredibly high quality.”

Scotland’s fintech cluster has seen a 24% increase in jobs within fintech enterprises as FinTech Scotland, the cluster management organisation, celebrates its sixth anniversary. Delivering on Scotland’s ambition to significantly increase fintech-related jobs, the 24% increase is driven by several components, including an increased number of fintech SMEs, a growing maturity across this community with more achieving growth, and a continued number of international businesses settling in Scotland. FinTech Scotland also reports an increase in enterprises scaling through collaboration with large financial institutions.

FinTech Scotland has further plans in 2024 to support fintech SMEs to scale, maintaining a focus on investment, international connection, and impactful collaborative partnerships. Nicola Anderson, CEO of FinTech Scotland, said: "As we mark Fintech Scotland's sixth anniversary, we’re focused on building on the strong foundations that are enabling Scotland to continue to realise its fintech potential." "Seeing the increase in SMEs and the growth in jobs is a testament to the fintech businesses and the commitment from all involved in the FinTech Scotland Cluster.

"A growing fintech sector benefits the whole industry, supporting talent development and attraction, driving innovation, and enabling purpose-led collaboration with good outcomes for business and consumers. The Launch Innovation Lab will continue to grow, and we will continue to work in close collaboration with FinTech Scotland to build on our success to date and create more opportunities to engage fintech businesses in 2024." Pardeep Cassells, global head of buy-side customer experience at AccessFintech, said: “The growth we’re seeing shows how fintech companies like AccessFintech can have an impact on Scotland's economy. It echoes what we are experiencing within our organisation. In the past three years, we've grown the number of full-time colleagues from zero to 24 and will continue to grow in 2024. Our company started in the US and Glasgow has been a great second home for us as well as a great platform to support our growth thanks to a very collaborative environment and the great work by universities to provide a pipeline of new talents.” Aruna Bhalla, Head of Partnerships and Open Banking at TSB, said: “With TSB’s strong roots in Scotland, we’re delighted to partner with Scottish fintechs like Snugg to help us deliver Money Confidence to our customers.

ScottishPower has partnered with ZeroAvia to explore the development of green hydrogen supply solutions for key airports, which could see the decarbonisation of air travel take off. The collaboration will allow the companies to explore the hydrogen infrastructure for airports to support hydrogen-electric flight and other potential uses. ZeroAvia has a longstanding partnership with AGS Airports, including Glasgow and Aberdeen. Hydrogen-electric engines, used by ZeroAvia, generate electricity using hydrogen fuel cells, emitting only water as a by-product. The company is advancing its technology, with plans to commercialise engines for aircraft by 2027. ScottishPower reinforces its commitment to sustainability by supporting ZeroAvia in this ground-breaking venture. We will develop green hydrogen solutions to test and power aeroengines using electrolysers backed by 100% renewable power from our UK based windfarms. The companies will work together to contribute to the UK government’s target of achieving at least 6GW of electrolytic green hydrogen production by 2030. Peter Jones, Director of ScottishPower’s Green Hydrogen business, said, “Green hydrogen, powered by renewable energy, can play a key role in the decarbonisation of heavy transport. We welcome the opportunity to support the aviation industry in delivering effective solutions for this important sector, enabling long-term sustainable and cost-effective outcomes for customers." ZeroAvia, having recently secured a 70-engine agreement with Ecojet and a partnership with AGS Airports, is at the forefront of hydrogen-electric flight innovation. Sergey Kiselev, Chief Business Officer at ZeroAvia, emphasised Scotland's potential, saying, "With the plethora of existing renewables, and many projects planned, Scotland has the chance to lead the UK in developing clean hydrogen supply. Working with leading energy companies like ScottishPower can help us overcome fuelling infrastructure challenges." This collaboration aligns with both companies' commitment to sustainable solutions, supporting the global shift towards cleaner aviation.

In an ever-evolving business landscape, women have been making significant strides in various sectors. One particularly compelling area of their impact is within family businesses. Historically, these enterprises have been predominantly male-dominated, but the tides are shifting, and women are increasingly taking the reins. Here we take a look into the world of women in family businesses, exploring their roles, challenges, and the transformative effects they bring to these organizations. The Changing Landscape Family businesses have long been considered the backbone of many economies. They are characterised by their unique blend of personal and professional dynamics, often passed down through generations. Traditionally, male heirs were groomed to inherit and lead these ventures, while female family members often played supportive roles. However, times have changed, and contemporary family businesses are embracing gender equality. The Rise Of Women Leaders Women in family businesses are not only breaking the glass ceiling but also redefining the industry. They are stepping into key leadership positions, holding roles such as CEOs, CFOs, and directors. This shift reflects the broader trend of increased gender diversity in leadership positions across various sectors. Influence And Impact Women bring a distinct perspective to family businesses. Their leadership style often emphasises empathy, collaboration, and long-term sustainability. These qualities can help strengthen the family business's internal cohesion and external reputation. Challenges Faced While progress is evident, women in family businesses still encounter challenges. One significant hurdle is overcoming preconceived notions and biases that can exist within both the family and the business. Balancing work and family life can also be complex when one is deeply intertwined with the other. Success Stories Highlighting the achievements of successful women in family businesses can serve as an inspiration for others. Profiles of women who have taken their family's enterprise to new heights can illustrate the potential and opportunities available in this field. Legacy and Continuity One unique aspect of family businesses is the passing of the torch to the next generation. Women in family businesses are not only concerned with their own success but with ensuring the sustainability and growth of the business for the future, often balancing tradition with innovation. Women in family businesses are a force to be reckoned with. They are redefining these enterprises by bringing fresh perspectives, diversifying leadership roles, and ensuring the legacy endures. As family businesses continue to evolve, the contributions of women in these organisations are more vital than ever, proving that gender is no barrier to achieving success in this dynamic and ever-changing world.

Working with bp, we will be working to reduce the environmental impact of our activities on site to create an enduring legacy of excellence beyond the racetrack.” Since 2017, bp has been a technical partner for the BWT Alpine F1 Team. bp’s engineers at its Technology Centre in Pangbourne have worked to develop all the fluids and fuels required by the BWT Alpine F1 Team car, as well as a range of Industrial products used in Enstone where the car is designed and manufactured. bp is already working to develop the 100% sustainable fuels required by the FIA Technical Regulations for the Alpine F1 team to compete in Formula 1 events in 2026 - well ahead of the date the requirements take effect.

An edible skate park, growing for gut health, and a tropical forest full of rare and unusual plants put a twist on gardening in the All About Plants category line-up supported by Project Giving Back at this year’s RHS Chelsea Flower Show. Featuring 100% edible plants, the Planet Good Earth Garden by Betongpark & Urban Organic turn their garden into RHS Chelsea’s first edible skate park with a two tonne granite skate ramp nestled amongst its planting. Created by a collection of skaters, parents and food growers, the garden highlights how fun outdoor learning in a natural setting can positively impact wellbeing and confidence in young people. Taking another new approach to grow your own, the Bowel Research UK Microbiome Garden by Sid Hill and Chris Hull champions growing for gut health, offering a probiotic feast in the form of an edible wildflower meadow. Sweet dock, lupins, and camassia feature heavily for their gut positive qualities as the garden explores the connection between soil health, plant life, and the human microbiome. Turning away from the traditional planting palette usually seen at RHS Chelsea, The Size of Wales Garden by Daniel Bristow will feature 313 different plant species, many rarely seen at the show, reflecting the number of tree species present in just one hectare of tropical forest. Plants include the moss-like carrot relative Azorella trifurcata along with the eyeballed pincushions of Leptinella ‘Country Park’ and the alien looking Rubus squarrosus. Taking inspiration from a more typical UK forest ecosystem, The Pulp Friction: Growing Skills Garden creates an inclusive space to challenge perceptions of what people with learning difficulties can achieve. Other gardens in the category champion the joy and magic of gardens to aid mental health and inclusivity. The Panathlon Joy Garden has been designed with an uplifting look and feel to demonstrate that joy is for everyone and the Sue Ryder Grief Kind Garden provides a peaceful sanctuary in which to reflect. Helena Pettit, Director of Shows, Commercial and Innovation said: “There is such a broad spectrum of ideas running through the All About Plants gardens this year and it’s great to see new takes on old trends coming to life in the designs." "Whether you garden for your own health, the health of the planet or just for the joy of it, these gardens have something for everyone with inspiration for gardeners to try something new.” All the gardens in the All About Plants category are supported by Project Giving Back, the unique grant-giving charity that supports gardens for good causes at RHS Chelsea, the designs in this category have a focus on unusual and specialist plants to offer a different take on the story of a garden. RHS Chelsea Flower Show runs from 21-25 May 2024 and tickets are available online at rhs.org.uk/chelsea

The NFU has responded to Defra Secretary of State Steve Barclay’s announcement of further changes to the Environment Land Management scheme (ELMs). NFU Vice President David Exwood said: “We welcome much of what has been announced including changes to the Sustainable Farming Incentive (SFI) for 2024, including increased payments and a raft of new options such as support for precision farming and uplands and moorlands. The new actions being made available under SFI will provide further clarity which is much needed by farming businesses in order to plan for the future." “Confirmation of plans to build on the Countryside Stewardship scheme (CS) with a developed and improved offer for 2024 is also welcome including further new and enhanced options for access and wildfire management." “However, we still have more questions than answers around the deliverability of these new options. It remains hugely frustrating that nearly six years on from the Health and Harmony consultation, which set farming in England on a path towards public goods for public payments, government is still a long way behind on its commitments." “With a minimum of 50% reduction in direct payments due in 2024, the tapering of payments to 2027 continues to be very concerning. We urgently need business critical detail on how farmers and growers will smoothly transition from existing agreements to the new offer." “We repeat our calls for Defra to undertake a mid-term review – an urgent assessment is needed of the agricultural transition on food production and farm business viability. Currently, no such impact assessment exists and it is something we have said is an absolute must to ensure these new schemes are set up to succeed." “It is imperative that SFI has sustainable food production at its core, with enough options that sit around productive farming. For this to happen it is absolutely vital that there’s a better balance between policies that focus on enhancing food production as well as the environment." “The NFU remains committed to working with Defra to improve ELMs for all farming sectors to ensure we get the uptake needed to deliver Defra’s own statutory environmental targets and to ensure a future agricultural sector which is resilient and thriving, with farmers doing what they do best; contributing to our national food security by producing sustainable, climate-friendly food alongside protecting and maintaining our environment.”

Aldi has been named as the nation’s most popular supermarket, according to new polling data for Q4 2023 from YouGov. In the poll, Aldi maintained its position at the top, ranking ahead of its traditional Big Four rivals, as well as M&S and fellow discounter Lidl. It comes after Aldi was named by Which? as the UK’s Cheapest Supermarket of the Year for 2023,having also won the accolade in 2022 and 2021. Britain’s fourth-largest supermarket was also named the UK’s Cheapest Supermarket of the month for December by Which? A basket of 43 everyday items cost £10.38 – or 14% – more at the average Big Four supermarket than at Aldi, while this was 27% more at the most expensive supermarket, Waitrose. Richard Thornton, Communications Director at Aldi, said: “We know that with the rising pressures of the cost of living, customers are looking for ways to save without having to compromise on the quality British food they love." “Aldi continues to offer great quality products at unbeatable prices, which is why we believe British shoppers have voted us the nation’s favourite supermarket yet again.” In 2023, Aldi also attracted more than half a million additional customers and saw customers switch spending from every major UK supermarket, including Tesco, Sainsbury’s, M&S and Lidl, to Aldi.

With cold and flu season in full swing, Tesco is making a big change to its popular own brand pocket tissue multi-packs: the retailer is scrapping the plastic packaging and replacing it with recyclable paper saving more than 55 million pieces of soft plastic. As opposed to boxes of tissues, the pocket version tends to be used on the go, meaning the plastic packaging has a higher chance of ending up in the environment. So, from mid-December, both the individual packs and the wrap around the multi-packs of Tesco’s Gentle White and Balm tissues have started moving into FSC-certified, paper packs. Tesco is the first supermarket to make the change to its own brand pocket tissues that will save almost 35 tonnes of new soft plastic being created each year. Tesco Campaigns Manager, Courtney Pallett, said: “Unlike boxes of tissues, the pocket version tends to be used on the go and can all too easily become litter. The new paper packaging works just as well as the old plastic wrap but is more sustainable.” Reducing the amount of plastic used in its UK business has seen Tesco remove nearly 2.2 billion pieces of plastic since 2019. Plastic removed to date includes: 200+ million bags from deliveries 100+ million extra lids from products such as wipes, creams, yoghurts, and desserts 75+ million tinned multipacks no longer plastic-wrapped 50 million pieces of plastic wrapping from cans of branded beers and ciders 50+ million pieces of plastic from greeting cards
