The joint Premier Sport and ukactive research pilot has been signed off by the University Ethics board and the overall feedback has been extremely positive. The data from this project will provide us with invaluable data over the next 12months and beyond. This final stage in the approval process means we can move forward and implement the pilot from September.

On Sunday 13th July, Premier Performing Arts, Chesterfield held their first summer dance show ‘Blame it on the Boogie’ with all proceeds on the day going to ‘Kids’n'Cancer UK’ charity.

Danny Melling received a picture (left) along with a quote from Marketing Manager, Francisco this week, saying:

"It’s unwise to pay too much, but it’s worse to pay too little.

When you pay too much, you lose a little money — that is all. When you pay too little, you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing it was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot — it can’t be done.
