Founded as an innovative design practice Green Design Group has accumulated a wealth of experience with a diverse mix of private, corporate, social and local authority clients involved in projects throughout the North of England and Southern Scotland. |

Why pay for dinghy insurance cover you don't need? With Towergate Mardon's dinghy insurance product, Insurance4dinghies, you choose the level of insurance cover which best suits how you use your dinghy or multi hull. The firm understands that sailors use their dinghies and multi hulls for different purposes, which is why the insurance4dinghies product lets you choose and pay for the level of dinghy insurance cover which best suits how you use your craft. If you don’t use your dinghy or multi hull for racing, you can opt for the cheaper and more basic Bronze package. If you do race, but only at club level, you can choose the mid-range Silver package, which offers racing risks cover but at a mid-range price. And, if you’re really into sailing and attend open meetings, nationals and European or World Championships, they offer full racing risks cover under the Gold package. |

On the shores of Loch Harport, the village of Carbost is home to Skye’s only distillery producing a wonderfully powerful and award-winning Island malt bottled at above average strength. Talisker™ embodies all the spirit of this rocky, storm-lashed island and its strong, steadfast people. Skye's only distillery this may be, but like the men of the island the malt has character enough for ten. “Famously distinctive Island malt. From the western Scottish island of Skye. I believe that the volcanic rock of Skye contributes to the pungent aroma; peppery flavour; and big finish. Unusual still design may add a further dimension.” Michael Jackson, whisky writer and expert. The Talisker range includes: 10 year old, 18 year old, 25 year old, Distillers' Edition, 175th Anniversary Bottling, Special Releases. |

The Fat Face philosophy - Hunt down the perfect wave, ski from dawn till dusk, shed your 9 to 5 skin… because when all is said and done… Better a bad day on the slopes than a good day in the office. It all began in 1988, two friends desperately trying to avoid working for a living and enjoying all that the French Alps had to offer. The life was way too good to end too soon… but money was running short. A plan was needed… design some sweatshirts, sell ‘em at night, ski during the day, stick around till Spring then head for the beach. Fat Face had been born. They’ve grown a bit since then, sell more than just a few sweatshirts these days and have a few more stores. But one thing will never change; they design kit for those who love to get out there, stuff that’s built to withstand the demands of an active lifestyle. So, whether you’re into extreme sports or just enjoy getting out amongst it… |
