Metropolitan Safe Deposits: Maximum Security
20 September 2019
Christopher Barrow Metropolitan Safe Deposits provides the peace of mind that comes with knowing your most valuable possessions are secure While the recently opened Chiswick office of Metropolitan Safe Deposits was under construction – and it was a complex 10-month process – there was much speculation about the nature of the new arrival. Clearly, it wasn’t going to be yet another High Road coffee shop or phone store. ‘I’m not altogether surprised,’ smiles Chief Executive, Christopher Barrow. ‘Our near neighbours must have been curious about why articulated lorries were suddenly arriving with one-ton slabs of reinforced concrete. At the final count, it required 225 tons to build our two basement safe deposit box vaults.’ It’s fair to say that most people probably regard safe deposit boxes as the preserve of the super-wealthy. In fact, that’s far from the case. At its Chiswick vaults Metropolitan Safe Deposits has installed over 8000 boxes in 12 different sizes; the smallest, which is perfect for storing small keepsakes, rings or watches, is available at an annual fee of £95 (including £10,000 insurance, which can be increased to £500,000). ‘At a time when banks are exiting the safe custody market – no major bank in […]
Fuller’s: The Brewery Shop – Discovering Chiswick’s ‘Secret’ Shop
19 September 2019
Adrian Southwick (second left) A treasure trove of beers, wines and fantastic gifts – and there’s a 10% discount for locals ‘Many people, even those who have lived in Chiswick for a while, don’t know The Brewery Shop is here,’ says Adrian Southwick, Visitor Centre Manager at Fuller’s Griffin Brewery. ‘We want to change that, particularly since we offer “locals” a 10% discount on our stock.’ Located behind The Mawson Arms, the Brewery Shop was extensively refitted in 2018 and transformed into a stylish, more interesting space. The re-design allowed for the addition of the Pilot Brewery, where the brewing team produce small batch beers, the Growler Bar, where customers can sample barrel-fresh beers and take away a growler (a jug holding three pints approx), and the Tun Room, which is the ideal site for out-of-office meetings (these bookings are often followed by a tour and tasting session in the Hock Cellar). ‘We carry just about every Fuller’s beer (from single bottles to packs), some of our extended family, such as Cornish Orchard cider and Dark Star, the Vintage Ales and speciality beers and a good selection of our wines,’ explains Adrian. ‘In addition, we have a beer-inspired food range […]
Dorota’s Lifestyle Studio – HYPOXI: Slim Down and Tone Up
19 September 2019
Tracey and Dorota Do you need to shift stubborn inches? Tracey Kane has lost 8kg since May, when she started a HYPOXI body-shaping programme at Dorota’s Lifestyle Studio. ‘I needed a kickstart to tone up and diets and other fitness plans hadn’t worked. I used to pass Dorota’s studio regularly and I was curious about HYPOXI – I’d never heard of it – so I did some research. I found the science behind the concept interesting and, after a free taster appointment, I booked a course. ‘HYPOXI has definitely worked for me. The sessions don’t take too much time, they’re easy to do and Dorota is so friendly and makes you feel at home. I’ve actually had to start shrinking my jeans in the hot wash so that I can fit them. I’m delighted with the results.’ As well as specialising in HYPOXI Dorota also offers other health and beauty treatments: laser hair removal, HydraFacials, reflexology, skin rejuvenation, aromatherapy and massage. On 27 September, the Studio team will be taking part in the Macmillan World’s Biggest Coffee Morning – it’s the perfect opportunity to find out about HYPOXI, raise funds for an excellent cause and enjoy delicious cake, coffee and […]
Hogarth Youth and Community Centre: Young Lives Matter
18 September 2019
Patrick, Jamilla and Fred The Hogarth Youth Centre has survived losing its local authority funding. But if the team is to expand the opportunities and support it gives young people, the help of the local community is needed… Tucked away at the end of Duke Road is a large anonymous building. With the William Hogarth School and St Mary’s RC Primary School on either side, you might assume that the block is part of their premises. In fact, it’s home to the Hogarth Youth and Community Centre, one of Chiswick’s most socially valuable and perhaps least known charities. ‘This is an affluent area, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t kids here who lack opportunities and for whom deprivation is an issue,’ says Fred Lucas, Finance Director and Chair of the Charitable Trust that oversees the Centre. ‘Our aim is to provide a safe place for those children to play, learn, meet friends and make good choices at a critical time in their lives.’ In 2018 that vision was threatened when the Council withdrew its funding. ‘Like many youth services, we became a victim of austerity cuts,’ explains fellow trustee Patrick Brougham. ‘However, we were determined to carry on and, in […]
