The value of education and the strength of character of the next generation has never been greater. We are expertly placed to enable our students to flourish academically whilst also ensuring they are well-equipped to understand and meet the challenges they face with empathy and humility. Through knowing and understanding each individual, not just through their academic achievements, our students flourish in all they do. The School is committed to a culture of innovative learning and achievement through our pioneering expertise, an uncompromised curriculum and life-enriching opportunities across both curricular and extra-curricular activities, all within an extraordinarily caring and supportive environment. Our history of nearly 425 years is celebrated in all aspects of school life, none more so than in our House system which provides a sense of ownership, belonging and a healthy level of competition and camaraderie. Aylesburians are, for many years to come, loyal to their school with many returning to celebrate at Old Aylesburian events, adding to their sense of identity and growth through achievement the School brings throughout their lives.

Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM), founded in 1898, was the first institution in the world dedicated to research and teaching in the field of tropical medicine. As a registered charity, we work across the world, often in very difficult circumstances, to fulfil our mission of reducing the burden of sickness and mortality in disease endemic countries. We do that through the delivery of effective interventions which improve human health and are relevant to the poorest communities. Our work in combating diseases such as TB, HIV/AIDS, malaria, dengue and lymphatic filariasis is supported by a research order book of well over £210 million. Our worldwide reputation and the calibre of our research outputs has secured funding to lead over 10 international consortia and product development partnerships aimed at reducing or eliminating the impact of diseases upon the world's poorest people. Our state-of-the-art facilities continue to develop new drugs, vaccines and pesticides which put us at the forefront of infectious disease research. As a teaching institution, we attract more than 600 students from 68 countries, from PhD research and Masters programmes to a range of professional courses, and work in partnership with health ministries, universities and research institutions worldwide to train the next generation of doctors, scientists, researchers and health professionals. The provision of technical assistance is a major component of LSTM's mission of promoting the improved health of the poor and disadvantaged peoples. LSTM consultancy improves health systems in developing countries whilst helping to inform our teaching and research agendas.

Pushkin House Trust

London

The founder of Pushkin House Maria Kullmann was one of the few women of her generation to have a degree in theology. In her youth she became personally acquainted with the philosophers of the Russian Religious Renaissance who made the journey to the West in the legendary ‘Philosophers’ Ship’: Nikolai Berdyaev (1874 - 1948), Sergei Bulgakov (1871 - 1944) and Nikolai Lossky (1870 - 1965). Their writings, as well as those of Vladimir Solovyov were explored in depth in lectures and talks at Pushkin House. Nikolai Lossky frequently visited from Paris and also gave talks. Across the border in Soviet Russia, the works of Bulgakov, Berdyaev and Lossky were published in self-published ‘Samizdat’ form: the intelligentsia considered religious discourse as providing a theoretical platform that could inform resistance to the regime - alongside a discourse on human rights and continental philosophy. The charismatic head of the Russian Orthodox Church Diocese of Sourozh Metropolitan Anthony (Bloom) (1914 - 2003) regularly contributed to the programme at Pushkin House. He spoke on a wide variety of topics including Russian Christian thinkers and Nikolay Fedorov, the founder of Russian Cosmism. Among his lectures was one entitled ‘On Faith and Deed’ that was published as an essay and became an influential text within the Russian Orthodox Church community, as did ‘On Russian People’s Faith’, recordings of which from the Pushkin House archive can be listened to at this exhibition. In many ways Metropolitan Anthony defined his faith and beliefs through his lectures at Pushkin House, which were to have a great influence within the Russian Orthodox Church and beyond.

David Isherwood

david isherwood

A qualified, experienced Mountain Leader and Rock Climbing Instructor, I was born and grew up in Hayfield at the foot of Kinder Scout where the mass trespass paved the way for hillwalking as we know it. My grandfather raced at Le Mans with Rob Lawrie, a boot maker who supplied the Alpine Club expeditions and made boots for Hillary’s ascent of Everest. Given this background, it was inevitable I’d be involved in the outdoors. I love this history but am equally excited about helping future generations and those new to the mountains. I’ve worked in the outdoors since 2006. I believe education and learning is vital and that mountaineering can be a powerful tool to develop people – whether this is a long, life changing journey or simply climbing a single peak as one-off challenge. In addition to working as a Mountain Leader and Instructor my expertise in logistics, planning & project management means I have the capability to deliver highly successful events across a broad range of sectors. I provide logistical & event support services for adventurous activities & challenges to a range of customers including charities, schools, private companies & high net worth individuals. I enjoy a range of outdoor, active sports; hillwalking, skiing, climbing, sailing, cycling (on the road) and swimming in open water. I enjoy introducing the next generation to the outdoors – through the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme and supporting primary schools. I’m based in Manchester and work predominantly in the Peak District, Lake District, Yorkshire Dales & Snowdonia, but I am UK mobile.

Blue Ink Trust “Transform Generations – Sponsor a Boarding Student for £300 for whole year.” Dear colleagues if you are able to read these lines then you are fortunate. There are hundreds of thousands of children as well as adult who are illiterate and, rather helping themselves and others, need assistance in everyday life. Since the existence of world, human beings have not witnessed anything being rained from the sky except water, however, anything you desire is possible to achieve and all things available on this planet have been invented by human beings. There is also no doubt that all inventions are a product of education. From the pen we write with to the papers we write on all are amazing inventions and are products of education. At Blue Ink Trust we believe that every human being must be literate and educated. The world with literate and educated human beings would be far better place. In many third world countries education is a privilege thing which everyone does not deserve to have neither everyone can afford it. Nonetheless the fact is that only education can resolve the situations the humanity is facing. Dear colleagues, everything has to come to an end, so is our lives. This earth has seen billions of people but only few of them are known to the mankind and they are remembered only due to their contributions to the humanity. Therefore, we must strive our best in leaving a legacy behind for the generation to come especially for those who are less fortunate.
