    We are proud to be supporting this year’s Captioning Awareness Week, an annual campaign led by Stagetext, a deaf-led charity bringing text-based deaf access to arts and culture through captions and subtitles 💙 Did you know that 18 million adults in the UK are deaf, deafened, or hard of hearing? That’s one in three people that could benefit from captions or subtitles to experience the joy of live events. This year, the cast of JACK AND THE BEANSTALK 🌱 (Bournemouth Pavilion) and SNOW WHITE & THE SEVEN DWARFS 🍎 (Fairfield Halls) have highlighted this year's relaxed and captioned panto performances to raise awareness of the importance of accessibility.

    A little look back to earlier in the year, when Sir David English Sports Centre became the first leisure centre operated by registered charity and social enterprise BH Live to offer EV charging. We’re delighted to have helped them.    We’ve installed EV charge points there, as part of the charity’s wider environmental strategy to introduce sustainable measures at the venues it operates across the Bournemouth Christchurch and Poole region.   Rob Dickin, our Joju Charging Key Accounts Lead, had this to say:    "It’s great to be working with partners like BH Live to deliver EV charging infrastructure that will help support the switch to electric vehicles, and assist us all in our goal to reach net-zero carbon emissions. The new charger will benefit visitors to the Sir David English Sports Centre and will encourage others to make the switch to an electric vehicle”.   #throwbackthursday #EVCharging #electricvehicles #EVCharginginstallation
