Desilu Banton desilu banton I was born in Dulwich Hospital, East Dulwich Grove,SE22 3PT, on 11th December 1961. I began my life in a house at 102 Railton Road, Herne Hill,SE24 OET, on the ‘Front Line’ of ‘Brixton’, London. What I remember most of my childhood is drawing, drawing all the time, every opportunity. My father loved music and loved to dance. We would dance together. My mother designed clothes and was a dressmaker and cake baker. My parents had arrived in England in 1954 from Jamaica and lived in the Brixton area. They lived on Concannon Road from around 1955 and moved to Railton Road in 1959 after they had wed at the church at Santley Street, around the corner of Concannon Road. Today I live by my painting and continue in my mothers’ and fathers’ legacy as a creator. I am open to producing works of art by commission. painting Painting is expression, a way of me talking with everybody else about how I feel, like a bluesman would play his blues. The whole thing is about feeling. Painting is blues. I paint those feelings that are from inside my head, from inside my soul. The spiritual part of all this is the heritage, the thing that comes from my ancestors, the ingredients that everybody talks about when they talk about the past, where we all come from, which is DNA, the genes. What I am doing is recording the memory that comes to me from nature, along with the music that came from West Africa and the Atlantic experience, all of it, and what I do then is give it form, give it some skin, textures and colours, the whole thing is like an umbilical cord that has not lost its life force, it is the whole nine yards. Jackie Burton Jackie Burton Born and raised in West Yorkshire, I took a trip to London in 1983 and have remained here since then. I am a black woman, a Christian and a mother. A retired Social Worker, I have a passion for children, young people and their families. Over the last 40 years I have had roles in church including youth leader and Pathfinder club leader as well as teaching in children’s Sabbath school & children’s church. It was my joy, to find the most creative and interesting ways to engage children and young people with so many varied learning styles. Over the last 12 years of my career I was a Team Leader for a local authority Fostering Service; having responsibility for facilitating training, assessing foster carers and placing children from diverse and challenging backgrounds with those carers. Life-long learning is part of who I am and I started becoming more interested in paper crafts when my now, 25 year old son was around 3 years old. We started to make cards for every occasion and stopped buying them from the shops. Paper crafts opened the door to so many other crafting pursuits and my love for crafting has only grown since then, from wedding decoration, decoupage & canvas art to knitting & simple sewing, I have done many and various and still do. Nothing pleases me more than sharing my love for something with others, and creative crafts is certainly one of those very many things. I have done this via children’s craft workshops; transforming spaces for Vacation Bible School (VBS); school holiday clubs; card making workshops for children and adults. If it includes crafting, I will consider it. Currently I am involved in a weekly Craft Café project where we are using hobby crafts to support people in our community who may be lonely, socially isolated or feeling low.

Amari Smith-Foster Amari Smith-Foster I am a mental health advocate and a student counsellor. I am extremely passionate about mental health and well-being. After battling with my own mental health, being sectioned at just 13 and becoming part of the system, I am using those same life experiences to help others overcome. My story, my pain and this rollercoaster of a journey has given me great insight to help others and make a change. Me speaking up and using my voice, allows so many others, old, young, male, and female to feel heard, to feel seen. Now I am in a position, I have promised myself , it is pivotal that I make a change for the mental health system.

Norman Mine Norman Mine Norman Mine is an Italian-born London based multidisciplinary artist whose practice encompasses visual art, acting and social work. Using autobiographical scenarios as a starting point, Mine's practice expands into fantasy and delusion and in his alter-ego, Dino Desica, an aspiring Italian actor who exists only through a video format, as "performance to camera", becoming an ephemeral simulation of the self. Mine's practice explores the infinite possibilities of the self, the authenticity and the structures of inclusion and exclusion in which it is constructed. For the past three years Mine has run creative workshops co-working with people of different generations, backgrounds, and abilities; developing a specific approach that unsettles the scenario in which participants perform to stimulate creativity and imagination as an opportunity to navigate within. Mine has obtained a Masters Degree in Fine Art at Goldsmith College in 2018. His work has been shown at Performance Istanbul (2021), disORDER Live Collective (2020), Deptford X (2019), The Koppel Project (2019), Platform1 Gallery (2018), Art Night London (2017).

Alexander Polyanichko, an internationally renowned conductor and educator regularly leads conducting masterclasses in cooperation with organizations such as Peter the Great Music Academy, Royal Baltic Festival, Hermitage Theatre, and St. Petersburg Chamber Philharmonic. A graduate of the Leningrad State Conservatory and the former student and assistant of the eminent conductor and pedagogue Ilya Musin (whose students were Yuri Temirkanov, Semyon Bychkov, and Valery Gergiev, among others), maestro Polyanichko has been one of Musin’s biggest proponents, carrying the great tradition of the St. Petersburg school of conducting. Maestro Polyanichko’s artistry, knowledge, his genuine willingness to share his experiences, his sense of humour, as well as his friendly and respectful manner of communication create a free exchange of ideas and a spirit of collaboration, while he and his students search for ways to resolve emerging issues related to the mastery of conducting, in a comfortable and productive masterclass atmosphere. Masterclasses traditionally consist of two parts: First Part, where the music conducted is being accompanied by two experienced pianists; and the Second Part where the students have the opportunity to work with a professional symphony orchestra. The dress rehearsal preceding the concert is where the conductors have a full assestment of their skills, as well as the final public concert (professionally recorded) as the culmination of the masterclass. During his twenty or so years of teaching at masterclasses, aestro MAlexander Polyanichko has worked with conductors from countries around the world including Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Egypt, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Oman, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Serbia, Turkey, United Kingdom and the United States of America. His students have consistently expressed their appreciation on his pedagogical skills and the masterclasses, and have gone to conduct many successful performances of their own in their respective countries and beyond. Formerly a violinist in the Leningrad (St. Petersburg) Philharmonic Orchestra under Evgeny Mravinsky, Alexander Polianichko studied conducting at the St. Petersburg Conservatoire with Prof. Iliya Musin. In December 1988, he was awarded first prize in the Sixth All-Union Conducting Competition. In February 1989, he was invited by Maestro V. Gergiev to join to the Mariinsky (Kirov) Theatre as a House Conductor. Alexander toured with the Company throughout Europe, Asia, and the United States. In 1994, Polianichko made his London debut conducting English National Opera’s production of Eugene Onegin. This led to him conducting two productions of Tchaikovsky’s operas with the Royal Opera Covent Garden: a revival of The Queen of Spades with Placido Domingo, and a new production of The Tsarina’s Slippers by Francesca Zambello of Cherevichki. As a guest conductor, Polianichko has appeared at many renowned opera houses, including the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow, Royal Opera House, La Scala, Deutsche Oper, San Francisco Opera, Australian Opera, English National Opera, Welsh National Opera, Danish Royal Opera, Stuttgart Oper, Colorado Opera, Lyric Opera of Kansas City, Norwegian Royal Opera, and Swedish Royal Opera. In 1996, he was invited to take the Opéra National de Paris to New York for their appearances at the Met. The symphonic orchestras he has conducted around the world include the Saint Petersburg Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra, Russian National Orchestra, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, London Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, BBC National Orchestra of Wales, Royal Scottish National Orchestra, City of Birmingham Symphony, Hallé Orchestra, Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, Danish National Radio Orchestra, English and Irish Chamber Orchestras - among many others. From 1986 to 1989, Polianichko was the Principal Conductor and Artistic Director of the Belorussian State Chamber Orchestra in Minsk. He also taught conducting in Belorussian and Leningrad State Conservatoires. From 1996 to 1999, he was the Principal Conductor of the Bournemouth Sinfonietta. From 2012 to 2015, he was the Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of the Rostov Academic Symphony Orchestra. He also served as the professor of the conducting department of the Rostov State Conservatoire. He was awarded the Honoured Artist of Russia title in 2009. Polianichko appears at many prestigious music festivals in Russia and abroad, including Edinburgh, Aldeburgh and Savonlinna, Golden Mask, White Nights and Chaliapin Opera Festivals, and had the privilege to work with many world-famous artists and singers, such as Anna Netrebko, Anne Sofie von Otter, Elena Obraztsova, Dawn Upshaw, Olga Borodina, Makvala Kasrashvili, Larissa Diadkova, Irina Bogacheva, as well as Placido Domingo, Jonas Kaufmann, Vladimir Galuzin, Ildar Abdrazakov, Sir Thomas Allen, Pata Burchuladze, Sergey Leiferkus, John Tomlinson and many others. He participated as the Jury member at the Rimsky-Korsakov Opera Singers’ Competition (1996), the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition (2011), and the Makris International Conducting Competition (2019). His featured recordings on DVD include Romeo & Juliet with Royal Sweden Ballet (2013); Cherevichki/Tsarina’s Slippers with Royal Opera House Covent Garden (2009); Beyond the Score with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (2008); as well as television recordings and live radio broadcasts worldwide.

Nuroo

nuroo

London

Nuroo was founded initially in July 2013 out of the desire to recognise the harsh challenges faced by nurses in their daily practice, but also to horn the joys of this rewarding career. It was changed from a community group to a business entity in September 2020 thanks to the hard work of some very talented individuals and the support of its members at the time. Our name comes from the compound word “Nurses’ Room” which is often used interchangeably with Nurses’ Station to describe an area of a healthcare facility where nurses and other healthcare workers perform their administrative duties when they are not in direct patient contact. We’re as unique as our name and the organisations we actively seek to support. This is because, steeped in experience gathered across the varied worlds of academia, business turnarounds, healthcare and strategy, Nuroo Leaders bring more than fifty years of combined effort, as well as social care delivery and compliance brain power to the table. We have assembled a number of clinical documentations from admission to discharge to help you prepare for and improve your CQC inspection rating. The initiative is designed to promote high-quality documentation that not only support the capture of the patient’s disease burden accurately in all healthcare settings, but also the appropriateness of nursing interventions and quality of care provided to the patient by ensuring all the information within the health record is of high quality and supports informed decision-making. We’ve also partnered with other well-recognised companies and talented care professionals that work tirelessly to give our valued clients the very best service available in the social care sector. So, whether you’re looking for staff training or/and preparing for your CQC inspection, it is important that you are able to demonstrate compliance with the regulators by making sure that you can evidence this with appropriate documentation, including clinical records and relevant up-to-date policies. The good news is that’s where Nuroo comes in! Nuroo is that little extra oomph when you need it, helping you to reset your inspection goals, put the one-speed gearbox of your documentation into drive, and gently press on the accelerator so that your inspection engine is back into motion towards the right direction of demonstrable care quality What’s more, Nuroo’s Clinical Documentation is created by nurses and for nurses, not just to prevent valuable time and effort being wasted on unnecessary paperwork, but also to ensure that interventions and actions implemented contribute to desired results. High-quality clinical documentation across the continuum of healthcare can be recognized in the analogy of a cruise. Just as patients rely on numerous providers and healthcare professionals to maintain a good state of health, passengers on a cruise ship rely on numerous crew members to ensure they have smooth sailing and stay on course. The anchor on a cruise ship can hold the ship in a certain location or be raised when the ship is sailing. Sometimes patients will be at one location for their care and the documentation is the anchor that provides the information needed for the healthcare teams to stay on course. When patients are discharged or complete a provider visit, they may see another provider in a separate location and setting. The new provider will rely on the documentation from the previous encounter to guide their medical decision-making. Each episode of care should therefore include documentation that clearly supports each new episode of care. Because like the anchor, the documentation supports a comprehensive view of the care provided for any single encounter, it may stop when the patient’s encounter or admission is over, but it is a clear record of each encounter. We are Nuroo, a membership organisation born out of the desire to recognise the harsh challenges faced by nurses in their daily practice, but also to horn the joys of this rewarding career. We represent the professional interests of our members and offer free, confidential advice and support on various matters including unpaid wages, work suspensions; NMC allegations; whistleblowing; discrimination, bullying, and harassment at work; career development; and much more. Our name comes from the compound word “Nurses’ Room” which is often used interchangeably with Nurses’ Station to refer to an area of a healthcare facility where nurses and other healthcare workers perform their administrative duties when they are not in direct contact with patients. We are as unique as our name and the people we actively seek to support. This is because nuroo refers to nurses’ ability to find balance within two opposing forces. Indeed, the daily routines of nurses are rarely the same as they are always on the front line interacting with people who are in stressful situations while having to react appropriately to emergencies and unexpected events. Not surprisingly, throughout history nurses have been a glowing light in some very dark days and despite entering the coronavirus pandemic understaffed, undervalued and underpaid, the skills, knowledge, and resilience of nurses across all disciplines and settings have been showcased beyond words as they work tirelessly in the most testing, bizarre and unusual circumstances. While it’s almost impossible to portray a typical day for a nurse, given how different healthcare workplaces can be, and how work can vary from shift to shift depending on which patient a nurse needs to see, there’s a constant expectation for nurses to step up to more – whatever this may be and regardless of their own personal challenges. The good news is that’s where Nuroo comes in! Nuroo is that little extra oomph when you need it, helping you put the one-speed gearbox into drive and pressing the accelerator so that you can set your career engine back into motion towards the right direction. It provides a safe place where nurses can step aside, offload, take a deep breath, recharge, learn from each other, advance and go beyond the call of duty. It is created by nurses and for nurses to help each other stay up to date with new research findings so that they can re-evaluate whether or not their current knowledge has relevance to their work, and avoid the risk of practicing in a way that’s either ineffective or even deleterious to patient care. Certainly, no one wants to waste valuable time and effort performing tasks that don’t contribute to desired outcomes. But to turn the tide so that we nurses can better appreciate and utilize information from research, there needs to be a completely different approach to networking – one that truly allows for both group and one-to-one input. Nuroo is determined to deliver on this agenda so that you feel impacted as a member. WHY WE ARE DIFFERENT. Our services are not for everybody! They’re for achievers: people who are resilient, bold, want to excel in their career, be of service, and make a real difference. If this sounds like you, then sit tight coz we’ve got you covered! With the assortment of care settings, it would be detrimental to the patient if a provider only considered the care that was provided in one setting to guide their medical decision-making. By using Nuroo’s Clinical Documents, you are taking a positive step towards effective record keeping which can turn the tide in CQC inspection drastically, especially in some key areas like respecting service users, seeking consent, ensuring care and welfare, safeguarding, and assessing and monitoring the quality of the service provision – all viewed by CQC inspectors as particularly important.

Last but not least, attending a UK university means you’ll be able to make connections and develop a high-quality network that can prove very useful when the time comes to look for a job. Besides, the UK is a multicultural society, and as such, you’ll easily be able to meet friends for life. Education Systems in the UK The UK education system can be divided into four distinct levels, and the national curriculum is organised into ‘’key stages’’: Primary education: Students will attend between ages five and age 11 and undertake key stage 1 and 2 with compulsory subjects and tests to assess their English and Maths skills Secondary education: Students will typically be between 11 and 16 years of age, undertake key stages 3 and 4 and work towards taking their GCSE’s. Further education: Students who have completed their secondary education and wish to gain access to university or college must complete further education. They’ll have to obtain qualifications such as A-Levels, BTEC's, or other qualifications based on the type of curriculum they wish to pursue. Higher education: With over 33% of British people entering the higher education level every year, the competition is fierce. A-Levels are the main criteria to get into university. However, there are some entry pathways, such as enrolling for an Access to Higher Education (Access to HE) course. If you’re an international student, you‘ll need to complete the equivalent to the UK’s further education. Note that all four regions of the UK, including Northern Ireland, England, Wales, and Scotland, have their own forms of education systems. The main difference pertains to primary and secondary education, where each region has its own qualifications. Higher Education Higher education in the UK offers students multiple options ranging from bachelors and masters to doctoral degrees. As an international student, you can apply for pathway programme in order to improve your English skills while accessing foundation courses to consolidate your basic knowledge in some specific areas before enrolling for university. This will ensure you acquire both the English and academic qualifications you need to get access to better universities. Note that both universities and private institutions offer pathway programs. Undergraduate courses Undergraduate courses are a great way for students to transition to the university level after high-school. Indeed, undertaking an undergraduate course in the UK will provide you with a first-degree level (Bachelor) while allowing you to explore different subjects and better define your preferences. To help you understand the different types of programs you can choose from, we’ve added a table below. Postgraduate studies Postgraduate courses allow students to obtain a postgraduate diploma, a professional degree, a master’s degree, or a doctorate and usually require having a first degree to enter (Bachelor). More specifically, there are four main types of postgraduate degrees: Taught courses: Master’s degrees or postgraduate diplomas Research degrees: PhDs, DPhils, integrated PhDs, and professional doctorates Conversion courses: Certificates and diplomas based on crash courses designed to get you up to speed on a subject you haven’t studied before Professional qualifications: Practical training to enter a specific profession To help you understand the different types of programs you can choose from, we’ve added a table below. Tuition Fees Tuition fees will greatly vary depending on your location, the institution you’re studying at, the study level, the program, and the duration of the program. Normally, the tuition fees range from 10,000GBP to 20000GBP+ per year, depend on the university or college you are going to attend. Students life in the UK The UK includes four different countries, including England, Scotland, North Ireland, and Wales, and is home to 66.65 million inhabitants. A few general facts you should be familiar with when enrolling for a British university: British people like law and order Respect and politeness are expected Punctuality is important Universities and college campuses are non-smoking zones Although the UK is usually safe, travel in a group at night, lock your doors, and avoid leaving your valuables in plain sight Accommodation There are a few different types of accommodation options available when it comes to accommodation for international students depending on your location, your budget, and whether or not your university features halls of residence: Halls of residence Finding accommodation will most likely be one of the first obstacles to tackle as an international student. One of the most popular options for a foreign student who starts the first year of study in the UK is to stay in a hall of residence. Halls of residence are buildings offering small single or shared flats usually provided by universities or colleges to accommodate students. Living in a hall of residence is an excellent way to meet other students as they feature common facilities and communal areas such as canteens, pool tables, or bars. This option is usually cheaper than renting a flat or a house. Private Flats or Houses While choosing to live in a flat or a house is more costly than staying in a hall of residence, this option allows for flexibility as you’ll be able to choose the location you live in. However, choosing to live by yourself might make meeting new people more challenging. According to a study led by the World University Ranking in 2020, the average student rent is £126 per week on average, and the average annual rent cost is £4,914. Note that around 70% of rents include bills. Shared flats Some websites, such as studentspareroom.co.uk or room.go.uk , allow students to research shared houses and shared flat options. Less expensive than renting a private flat, this option will also allow you to meet other people (may they be students or not). It also means you won’t have to consistently stay on the college or university premises. Public Transport The UK is well connected through different types of transport: Trains: Most cities and towns in the UK have a train station. You can plan your journey and book your tickets on thetrainline.com . As a full-time international student under the age of 25, you are eligible for a 30% discounted pass . Coaches: Coaches are a great option if you’re planning to explore the UK as these large buses are designed for long journeys. Buses: Buses are the cheapest way to travel around and are very popular among students. You can use the app city mapper to plan your journey. You can find tickets based on your destination here . Underground: Whether you’re studying in London or just exploring for a couple of days, you’ll most likely use ‘’the tube’’ to travel around. As an international student under the age of 25, you can apply for the 18+ student Oyster card , which will give you access to a 30% discount on fares. Social Life Two great ways to immerse yourself into the UK culture and embrace the local way of life is to learn English and join student clubs or societies. Some campuses, including Loughborough University, Lancaster, or Liverpool Hope, offer great facilities such as spas, gyms, shops, bars, and clubs, which can help you meet other students. The towns and campuses brim with bars, restaurants, and clubs welcoming countless students every night. Going out on the weekends is an integral part of the UK way of life and is a widespread activity among students. Note that, if you’re invited to a house party or for dinner, you’ll be expected to bring something along (dessert if it’s a dinner, for instance, or a drink if it’s a party). Note that the pub culture is embedded in the UK way of life as it’s a way for people to relax and socialise. Although the country is multicultural and international cuisines are an integral part of the UK food scene, Britons have a few specialties you might want to try on a day out with friends. Fish & Chips, Bangers & Mash, Shepherd’s pie or steak & kidney pudding are some of the British favourites to try. Last but not least, the local sense of humour might surprise you. Indeed, Brits use sarcasm and irony a lot (famous British sense of humour) so make sure you don’t take things to the first degree as they’ll often be teasing you. You can deleted it The UK student visa Cost of Visa The fee for the Tier 4 General Visa is £348. In addition to the general visa fee, you’ll have to pay for the healthcare surcharge up to £470 a year, depending on your location, home country, and the type, of course, you choose to enroll in. The fees for the Short-term Student Visa range currently between £97 for visas up to 6 months and £186 for visas up to 11 months. Healthcare As a Tier 4 student visa holder who is studying in the UK for six months or longer, you will have access to the NHS (the British Healthcare System). If you’re not eligible via your visa, you will need to look into private insurance. Note: For students who apply with SpringBoard4Education in any countries, we help you prepare the necessary documents for your student visa application, as well as other steps in the process, completely free of charge. Work opportunities International students who hold a Tier 4 student visa are allowed to work part-time while studying in the UK. Let’s take a look at the working rights before diving into working options. Working rights If you hold a Tier 4 visa issued for full-time degree-level studies, you’ll be allowed to work for up to 20 hours a week and full-time during vacations or summer holidays. Your institutions must be listed on the official UKVI Sponsor list and the list of “recognised bodies .” Note that you’re not allowed to work, may it be work placement or work experience, on a Short-term Student Visa. Reinstatement of the two-year post-study work visa In 2019, the UK government announced the reinstatement of the two-year post-study work visa ( Graduate Route ) for international students studying in the UK, starting from September 2020. This will allow international students enrolled in a bachelor's or master's degree to be able to work in the UK for up to two years after completing their master’s degree and up to three years after completing their Ph.D. There will be no restrictions regarding the type of work that can be performed by former international students. Sponsorship For international students who wish to find long term work in the UK (up to 5 years), the Tier 2 Visa is the best option. To be eligible for this visa, the first step will be to find an employer who is a licensed sponsor and is willing to hire you. They must also demonstrate that they’ve advertised the role but couldn’t fill it. You’ll find more information on this visa here . Opportunities Working part-time while studying can be a great way to help fund the cost related to your study. It can also be an excellent way for students to develop their work experience and critical employability skills and ultimately increase your chances of being offered a job at the end of your studies. Popular part-time jobs for international students include: Server Bartender Student Ambassador Admin jobs Animal Caretaker Childminder Tutor Retail assistant Customer Service

Harrow,

In these terms and conditions (“Conditions”) the following expressions shall have the following meanings: “Business Day” means any day other than Saturday, Sunday or a public holiday. “Business Hours” means the hours detailed in Condition 32 below. “Contact Hours” means Monday to Friday (inclusive) from 07:00 hours to 17:00 hours but excluding bank holidays. “Contract” means any contract between MT and the Customer for the supply of Hardware and/or Software (with the associated Licence) and/or services which is subject to these Conditions. “Customer” means any person, firm or company who enters into a Contract with MT to which these Conditions apply. “Force Majeure” means any event outside the reasonable control of either Party affecting its ability to perform any of its obligations (other than as to payment) under these Conditions. “Goods” means all or any tangible or intangible goods or intellectual property including but not limited to Hardware and Software which are provided to a Customer in accordance with these Conditions. “Hardware” means any hardware provided by MT to the Customer. “MT” means MODERNTRONICS Ltd. or its servants and agents as the case may be. “Insolvency Event” means any one of the following in relation to the Customer: (i) a notice being issued to propose a resolution for winding up or dissolution, or such a resolution being passed; (ii) a petition for a winding up or an administration or bankruptcy order being presented, or such an order made; (iii)any steps being taken with a view to a voluntary arrangement or other assignment, composition or arrangement with all or any creditors or any moratorium, readjustment, rescheduling, forgiveness or deferral of all or any indebtedness; (iv) suspension of payments to all or any creditors and/or ceasing business; (v)an encumbrancer taking possession of all or any assets; (vi) an administrator or receiver being appointed over the Customer or all or any of its assets; (vii)any action anywhere similar or analogous to any of the foregoing; or MT reasonably believing that any of the foregoing is imminent. “Licence” has the meaning attributed to it in Condition 23 below. “Minimum Term” means the term set out in Condition 17 below. “Party” means MT or the Customer and “Parties” means both of them. “Response Time” means two Working Hours from an initial call to the hotline under Condition 26 or 28 below. “Seminar” means any seminar provided by MT. “Service Operator” has the meaning given to that term in Condition 28 below. “Site” means https://www.moderntronics.com and all subdomains including (but without limitation) “Software” means software or software updates or upgrades provided by MT and licensed to the Customer under Condition 23 below. “Training Sessions” means any training session provided by MT. “Working Hours” means the hours between 9:00 to 17:00 on any Business Day 2.

A reference to a statute or statutory provision is a reference to such statute or provision as amended or re-enacted. A reference to a statute or statutory provision includes any subordinate legislation made under that statute or statutory provision, as amended or re-enacted. Any phrase introduced by the terms including, include, in particular or any similar expression shall be construed as illustrative and shall not limit the sense of the words preceding those terms. A reference to writing or written includes faxes and e-mails. 3. General Information These Conditions apply when MT: sells and delivers Hardware; sells and delivers Licences; sells and delivers Software; or provides repairs or any other services to the Customer. They will also apply to other business transactions unless MT agrees that alternative special conditions apply. These Conditions apply to the exclusion of any other conditions that may be proposed by a Customer or implied by law (insofar as such exclusion is lawful). Part II Specific Provisions for the Use of the Online Shop Customers purchasing Goods from the Site, must read all Parts of these Conditions, which apply to them in full. 4. Consumers The Goods and services provided by MT are designed only for sale to and use by businesses in the course of their business activities. MT does not knowingly sell to any person dealing as a consumer or supply anything for personal use. 5. Customer’s Status By placing an order on the Site, the Customer warrants that he or she is: legally capable of entering into binding contracts and, where the Customer is an individual, that he or she is at least 18 years old; and is dealing in a business capacity and purchasing Goods and/or services for the purpose of his business and not for personal use. Part III General Conditions for the Provision of Goods and Services 6. Formation of Contract Quotations provided by MT to the Customer are not binding on MT. The Customer’s order constitutes an offer to MT to buy the Goods or services. All orders are subject to acceptance by MT. The offer will be deemed accepted, and a Contract formed, when MT sends the Customer confirmation that the Goods have been dispatched (“Dispatch Confirmation”) or, in the absence of a Dispatch Confirmation, when the Goods are delivered. The Contract will only relate to those Goods whose dispatch is confirmed to the Customer by a Dispatch Confirmation or if no Dispatch Confirmation is sent, those Goods which are actually dispatched. MT is not obliged to supply any Goods which may have been part of the Customer’s order until the dispatch of such Goods has been confirmed in a separate Dispatch Confirmation. Subject to Condition 17 below, an order for services will be deemed to have been accepted, and a Contract formed, when MT sends the Customer confirmation that the services ordered will be provided (“Service Confirmation”) or, in the absence of a Service Confirmation, when the services begin to be provided. Oral representations will only be binding upon MT if they are expressly confirmed in writing by MT to the Customer. 7. Price Unless MT expressly specifies prices to the Customer, MT’s current list of prices applicable at the time of the acknowledgement of order will apply. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all prices are exclusive of value added tax, postage, freight, insurance, forwarding fees, installation and commissioning, travelling expenses and subsistence, which will be added as appropriate. MT will charge overtime for work outside of their normal Business Hours at up to 150% of the hourly rate from time to time applicable during Business Hours. Subject to Condition 16 below, prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which MT has already sent the Customer a Dispatch Confirmation or a Service Confirmation as the case may be. The Site contains a large number of products and it is always possible that, despite MT’s efforts, some of the products listed may be incorrectly priced. MT will normally verify prices as part of dispatch procedures so that, where a product’s correct price is less than our stated price, MT will charge the lower amount when dispatching the product to you. If a product’s correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, MT will normally, at our discretion, either contact you for instructions before dispatching the product, or reject your order and notify you of such rejection. MT is under no obligation to provide any Goods or services to the Customer at an incorrect (lower) price, even after MT has sent a Dispatch Confirmation or a Service Confirmation in relation to those Goods or services if such incorrect price could reasonably have been expected to be recognised by the Customer as an error. 8. Delivery and Availability The Customer’s order for Goods will be fulfilled by the delivery date in the Dispatch Confirmation or, if no delivery date is specified, then within 30 days of the date the Customer made his order (where such an order leads to a Contract). The period for delivery or performance of the Contract will normally commence on MT’s acknowledgement of the order. However, if the Customer is required to do anything before MT can effect delivery, MT will, as soon as practicable, notify the Customer accordingly. The time within which MT must deliver any Goods will run from the date on which MT receives notice from the Customer that it has duly complied with such notification from MT. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, any periods mentioned in the acknowledgement of order for services and Software development are based on a preliminary estimate of the required workload and therefore are approximate only. Time of delivery and performance is not of the essence. If MT fails to meet any delivery or performance dates set out in the acknowledgement of order and is solely responsible for such failure, the Customer may terminate the Contract but only after MT has been given an opportunity to rectify the situation and subsequently fails to meet the revised set of delivery or performance dates provided by MT to the Customer in writing. Unless MT has been deliberately or grossly negligent, all further claims of the Customer on the basis of the delay in performance are excluded. If MT cannot deliver or perform its obligations under the Contract due to Force Majeure or a failure of the Customer to cooperate or any other act, default or omission of the Customer, then MT will be entitled to perform its obligations under the Contract once the issue has been resolved, provided the issue occurred while MT was still allowed to deliver or perform and MT shall have no liability whatsoever for any delay or its failure to perform its obligations. 9. Agreed Performance Unless specified otherwise in writing, the agreed performance in respect of any repairs provided by MT, at the Customer’s request will be to adjust the relevant unit(s) to MT’s applicable standard specifications for that unit. Where the relevant unit(s) cannot be repaired to MT’s applicable standard specification due to the Customer limiting the repairs required or the time and money to be invested MT may exceed the Customer’s request if MT considers, at its sole discretion, that such additional repairs are reasonable and will ensure the proper functionality of the unit in question. The agreed performance levels for MT’s maintenance and care services are as set out in Conditions 26 and 28 below; for all other services the agreed performance levels will be as set out in the acknowledgement of order. 10. Refunds Where the Customer returns Goods (at the Customer’s cost) because he or she claims that the Goods are defective, MT will examine the returned Goods and will notify the Customer of its findings within a reasonable period of time. If MT (in its sole discretion) deems that the Goods are defective, MT may at its option repair, replace or provide a refund in respect of such defective Goods. MT will process any repair, replacement or refund as soon as practicable and, in the case of any refund, within 30 days of the day MT confirmed to the Customer that the Customer was entitled to the same. Such refunds will be made in full, including a refund of any delivery charges for sending the item to the Customer. 11. Import Duty If the Customer orders Goods for delivery outside the UK, they may be subject to import duties and taxes which are levied when the delivery reaches the specified destination. The Customer will be responsible for payment of any such import duties and taxes. Please note that MT has no control over these charges and cannot predict their amount. Customers should contact their local customs office for further information before placing an order. Customers must comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the country for which the Goods are destined. The Customer will indemnify and keep indemnified MT in respect of all costs, proceedings, losses and liabilities resulting from any breach by the Customer of any such laws. 12. Retention of Title to Property The Goods will be at the Customer’s risk from the time of delivery. Property in and title to all Goods will remain with MT until MT has received payment for the full price of all the Goods (and/or all other goods and/or services supplied by MT to the Customer under any other contract whatsoever).. The Customer may sell or use Goods in which title is retained during the course of their normal business, but may not give such Goods by way of pledge or pledge these Goods as security. Until the property in and title to the Goods passes to the Customer: the Customer shall keep the Goods properly stored, protected and insured and separate from all or any other goods whether belonging to MT, the Customer or any third party; MT shall be entitled at any time forthwith to revoke the Customer’s power to deal with the Goods; and such power shall automatically cease if an Insolvency Event shall occur in respect of the Customer; and the Customer shall not make any modification to the Goods, the Software or their packaging or alter, remove or tamper with any marks, numbers or other means of identification used on or in relation to the Goods. Upon termination of the Customer’s power to deal with the Goods, the Customer shall place the Goods at the disposal of MT and MT are hereby irrevocably authorised without the need for consent of any third party but using only such force as may be necessary, to enter upon any premises of the Customer or any third party for the purpose of removing the Goods. If third parties claim title to Goods with retained title, the Customer will inform MT without delay, will notify the person making the claim of MT’s title and will support MT in enforcing its rights, including taking all the necessary steps required to preserve MT’s rights, including commencing litigation at the Customer’s own expense. If the Customer breaches the Contract, e. g. by delaying payment, the Customer will be obliged to return the Goods with retained title if requested by MT, in return for which MT will not terminate the Contract. 13. Payment Where services, maintenance or care are provided on an ongoing basis, MT will invoice the Customer for these at the beginning of the billing period or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter. The Customer will pay MT’s invoices in full within 30 days from the date of the relevant invoice. Depending on the scope of an order, payments for such services, maintenance or care are due either upon placement of the order by the Customer or upon partial delivery of the same of between 40 to 50% of their respective order value. BACS or cheque are the only methods of payment accepted. Invoices for Seminars and Training Sessions will be issued at the beginning of the respective session and payment is due immediately and without deduction. 14. Delay of Payment Where a Customer fails to pay an invoice by the due date, MT will be entitled to charge the Customer interest on all monies outstanding from the due date until the actual date of payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate of 8% above the base rate of the Bank of England calculated on a daily basis. 15. Setting-Off and Refusal of Payment The Customer cannot exercise any right of set-off in respect of amounts owed to or by MT. 16. Change of Pricing by MT for Ongoing Maintenance or Care MT may increase its prices for maintenance and services by giving the Customer written notice 2 months prior to the end of the Minimum Term. The Customer has 4 weeks from the date of receipt of the written notice from MT to object to the change. Where the Customer so objects, the Customer will be entitled to give notice to MT to terminate the Contract as of the date of the proposed price increase. 17. Automatic Extension of Contract Where services, maintenance or care are performed on an ongoing basis the Contract will come into effect upon acceptance by MT of the first order from the Customer for Software maintenance. The Contract will initially run until the date specified at “Minimum Service Duration” as set out in the “MT Service Product List” or until the expiry date where an expiry date is stipulated in the Contract (“Minimum Term”). Subject to one of the Parties serving written notice of termination on the other at least three months prior to the expiry of the Minimum Term, the Contract will be extended automatically. In the case of Software Licences supplied without a time limit, the Contract will extend until December 31st of the current year. The subsequent extension periods will begin on January 1st and end on December 31st of the respective year. In the case of Software Licences supplied with limited validity (e.g. a licence for 1-year) the extension is based on the terms and conditions set out in the description of the respective licence (e.g. extension by one further year). Unless otherwise agreed in writing, any extension to a Contract will be on the basis of MT’s current price list as at the date of such extension. 18. Delivery Obligations and Shipping The conditions for EXW (ex works) (MT’s premises or such other place referred to in the relevant order) as set out in the Incoterms 2010 apply to delivery of any Goods. Claims for any transport damages and any replacement of damaged Goods, remain with the Customer who is responsible for adhering to the mode and period for the filing of any claims with carriers, shippers and insurers. 19. Scope of Warranty (Material Deficiencies and Deficiencies in Title) MT warrants that the Hardware is free from defects in workmanship and material as at the time of transfer of risk; and warrants that the Software does not contain any flaws which void or substantially reduce its value or suitability for the usual or contracted purpose. Where MT is not the author of the Software, MT does not warrant that such Software will run without interruptions or errors, nor that MT will be capable of resolving all Software errors, nor that the Customer will be capable of achieving all of the functions included in the Software in all of the combinations chosen by the Customer, nor that these will meet the Customer’s requirements. MT will only warrant the quality and/or durability of Goods if it has expressly agreed in writing with the Customer that it will do so. The warranty period is 1 year. Where MT is the author of the Software such Software is subject to MT’s standard warranty. 20. Obligation to Inspect and Serve Notice of Defects The Customer must inspect the Goods upon delivery or repair and must notify MT in writing of any failure by MT to meet the specification within 7 days of delivery or repair or (where the failure was not apparent on reasonable inspection) within a reasonable time being no more than 1 month after discovery of the failure. Where the Customer fails to provide such notice MT will have no liability under its warranty. 21. Liability Subject only to Condition 21 d), MT shall not be liable to the Customer in contract, tort (including without limitation negligence) and/or breach of statutory duty for any loss or damage which the Customer may suffer by reason of any act, omission, neglect or default (including negligence) in the performance of the Contract by MT, its servants or agents, in a sum which is greater than GBP 200,000 per incident or series of connected incidents. Subject only to Condition 21 d), MT shall not be liable to the Customer whether in contract or tort (including without limitation negligence and/or breach of statutory duty) for indirect loss of any kind resulting from these Conditions, its performance or any breach of its terms. Subject only to Condition 21 d), MT shall not be liable to the Customer whether in contract or tort (including without limitation negligence and/or breach of statutory duty) for indirect economic loss of any kind including (but without limitation) loss of business opportunity, reputation, goodwill resulting from these Conditions, its performance or any breach of its conditions. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, nothing in these Conditions shall operate so as to limit or exclude MT’s non-excludable liability in respect of death or personal injury caused by the negligence of MT to exclude the application of Section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979 and to exclude liability for fraudulent misrepresentation. MT’s liability for loss of data is limited to the effort required to restore the data from proper backups provided by the Customer. 22. Third Party Rights If any third party claims or takes action against the Customer, because Goods delivered by MT, or their use in accordance with the instructions provided by MT, purportedly violate their commercial rights or proprietary rights, then the Customer will inform MT of the same. MT agrees that they will assist the Customer in defending such claims. Where the claim is made to the Customer within 12 months of the date of delivery, MT will indemnify the Customer against claims provided that the Customer: appoints MT to defend the claims or to settle the dispute, and promptly notifies MT of any such claim, keeps the Customer informed of all information received and provides such reasonable assistance to MT as it shall reasonably require, does not defend the action itself without coordinating such defence with MT, and does not at any time admit liability or otherwise settle or compromise or attempt to settle or compromise the said claim or action except upon the express instruction of MT, the alleged breach of rights is not based on alteration of the delivered item used by the Customer, and does not use the item delivered by MT in conjunction with other items and/or in a fashion that breaches any such rights, in a situation where the use of the item as delivered by MT would not have breached the rights of the person who has filed the claim. MT may at any time and at its own expense acquire on behalf of the Customer the right to continue to use the Goods, to replace the Goods or alter them in such a fashion that the rights of others are no longer breached. If this is not possible, the Customer shall return or destroy the Goods if required to do so by MT who will reimburse the purchasing price for the Goods less depreciation. If the Customer refuses to do so, MT will no longer defend the claim or provide the Customer with any further support. The Customer has no further rights in case of disputes over proprietary rights with third parties and MT shall have no liability therefore unless MT could be blamed for acting deliberately or with gross negligence. Part IV Special Conditions for Delivery of Software 23. Conditions of Use for Delivered Software In the case of delivery of Software to the Customer, MT hereby grants the Customer a simple, non exclusive and non-transferable, licence to use the Software (“Licence”) .

Upon delivery of any Software, including updates and upgrades, the Customer will immediately produce a backup copy. MT may terminate the Licence granted to the Customer pursuant to this Condition 23 with immediate effect if the Customer is in breach of the conditions for the use of the Software for a period of 30 days from the date of a written notice of such a breach from MT or any third party.
