Regenerating Buildings Preservation Trust

Info:  Is interested in buildings, which are neglected, decaying or at risk of demolition, especially where no commercial solution has been found. It focuses on listed buildings and those in conservation areas, but is interested in all buildings of architectural or historic merit.

What the Trust can do: repair or renovate buildings; carry out research and publish useful information; provide advice to owners; enable the public to view and enjoy buildings; work with voluntary organisations, the local authority and other statutory bodies and facilitate building restoration; raise funds.

 

Somerset Building Preservation Trust

Info:  Works to save the architectural heritage of Somerset for YOU and the nation as a whole. Historic buildings that would otherwise be lost through dilapidation and neglect are restored. They are then converted into a variety of uses - a tithe barn into a community hall, some 16th century almshouses into social housing, an 18th century Congregational Chapel into an area for the local community to enjoy exhibitions, and much more.


The British Land Reclamation Society

Homepage   Deep Links:  News   Events   Membership   IALR   Diary   About   Contact

Info:  Is an interdisciplinary organisation - and Registered Charity - concerned with the reclamation, regeneration and restoration of land. This includes contaminated, derelict and abandoned land from mineral working and former urban and industrial uses.

As an organisation they cover education, best practice and research over the many subject areas involved in the science and practicalities of land reclamation in England, Scotland and Wales. This could be from ground work engineering and geotechnics, to economic regeneration and sustainable urban reclamation. It covers a wide range of expertise and we encourage continuing development across disciplines.


The Environment Trust

Info:  Is a development trust and charity based in London's East End. Their aim is to achieve sustainable development by improving the social, economic and physical environment for community benefit, and this is reflected in the variety of their work.


The Industrial Buildings Preservation Trust

Info:  Was founded in 1975. Like all Buildings Preservation Trusts, it is a 'restorer of last resort' - that is, it takes on buildings of historical significance that have no future in the ordinary market place. Unlike most BPTs, it is not regionally or locally based but can deal with buildings anywhere in the country, as long as they have an industrial connection. That can cover anything from warehouses and wharves to rural buildings such as granaries - since agriculture is the industry of the countryside. IBPT is a registered charity, no 270956.


Trees for Cities

Info:  Is an independent charity working with local communities on tree-planting and landscaping projects. Their aim is to tackle global warming, create social cohesion and beautify our cities through tree planting, community education and training initiatives in urban areas of greatest need.


Tunnel Sensors

Info:  Was formed specifically to supply, install and maintain tunnel atmosphere monitor systems worldwide. We believe we are the only company in the marketplace to design and manufacture their own analysers specifically for pollution monitoring in the road tunnel environment.

Our mission is to provide systems that enable operators to run their tunnels at financially efficient levels, whilst protecting tunnel users from the irritating effects of vehicle pollution. We offer a full range of sensors for visibility, carbon monoxide (CO), nitric oxide (NO), nitrogen dioxide (NO2) and air velocity / direction monitoring -- with a variety of interface and configuration options.
