      <image:title>Andrew Fairlie Scholarship - Educational trip to France with Grande Cuisine</image:title>
      <image:caption>Grande Cuisine are a supplier of prime cooking equipment to the hospitality sector and worked with Andrew to supply the main cook suite at Restaurant Andrew Fairlie.  Stephen Hobbs, Director at Grande Cuisine said: “Andrew was a great supporter of ours in our younger ‘business’ days and helped in establishing our business, allowing us to get where we are today. We have since created the Grande Cuisine Academy, a not for profit online resource that is completely free for Chef Lectures and Students to utilise as part of their hospitality courses and into their careers, and we organise an educational visit to France for young chefs. The visit is designed to give chefs an inspirational trip to the heart of gastronomic France, visiting Les Halles de Lyon Paul Bocuse food market, the Chartreuse region and Sandrine Chappaz Chocolatier, and a visit to the Athanor factory, with some French dining. We’re delighted to give something back to the industry in Andrew’s name, and have the winner of the Andrew Fairlie Scholarship join us for this experience.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>In a world where payments are often seen as the step before ‘goodbye’, Elavon helps businesses see things differently. Because behind every payment is a person. Every payment is an opportunity to connect with all kinds of people, in all sorts of places and on the latest technology platforms.   From food trucks at muddy summer festivals to multinational airlines serving Heathrow, Elavon powers secure payments. And not just in the United Kingdom – our deep expertise and experience mean we’ve earned the trust of over two million customers in 36 countries. We’ve been taking care of business for over 30 years. Whatever the industry, we know all about it – so we can deliver tailored, reliable solutions for any business, no matter what size or sector.  Elavon is the eighth-largest European merchant acquirer by processed volume in the markets where we operate. Our processing platform makes payments possible, anywhere and everywhere across the globe. It’s one of the most reliable platforms in the industry, too: with typically 99.999% uptime, our authorisation time for payments is just under half a second. All of this means our customers in Ireland are covered for reliability, security, technology and speed. Plus, as a wholly owned subsidiary of U.S. Bank, Elavon is backed by the strength, scope and stability of the fifth-largest commercial bank in the United States.   But it’s Elavon employees who make all this happen. Our 4,000-strong European workforce powers business potential from our bases in Ireland, Germany, Poland, Sweden, Spain, Norway – and the UK. In 2007, our first UK facility opened in London. Since then, we’ve opened a second base in Newcastle, making the UK one of Elavon’s fintech hubs.  At Elavon, we support our employees – and help them give back to our local communities around London and Newcastle – through volunteering, mentoring, and focusing on workforce diversity, equity and inclusion. We focus on our people and how they can achieve their full potential within Elavon. We’re proud that our UK offices have been certified as a Great Place to Work™.
