  I am the man behind Olympus Power's power purchase agreements. I work with customers to create the contracts that supply them with green electricity at a cost below the grid. I have been working in business development for 25 years, and the last 12 have been in solar. My experience of large developments and the requirements of business mean I am well placed to give our customers the best renewable electricity deal.“We’ve got a real team approach at Olympus and we’re constantly evolving our offering.

  Dance, Drama & Singing Classes for 4-18 year olds About Stagecoach Theatre Arts Schools Stagecoach Theatre Arts is a highly regarded network of performing arts schools with a proven record of delivering quality dance, drama and singing lessons to youngsters worldwide. Over the years Stagecoach has provided a springboard for some of the UK's leading young talent and has had the privilege of watching thousands of kids grow in confidence and ability. We first opened our doors in 1988 when Stagecoach founders Stephanie Manuel and David Sprigg launched three schools in Richmond, Redhill and Woking. Their formula of teaching small classes of children an hour of dance, an hour of singing and an hour of drama on a weekly basis was an instant success. Today we continue to build on those foundations. We have a thriving network of more than 320 fun and friendly franchised performing arts schools at safe and convenient locations in the UK, and a growing presence in ten other countries. We offer brilliant kids’ parties, children’s holiday activities involving musical theatre and drama workshops, and we have our very own talent agency for children and young performers. Our goal is to inspire and enrich young people through the performing arts and introduce them to new opportunities in a happy, safe and secure environment. The safety of our students is of paramount importance. Stagecoach was one of the first children's organisations to set up a Protection Protocol for our schools and is often cited as an example of best practice when it comes to child protection. It goes without saying that we closely monitor all our performing arts schools and we insist that all our teachers are police checked to the highest level. Show less
