Article Abstract:
Greater commercial awareness in the UK leisure industry has helped promote the idea of dedicated urban entertainment centres in places where previous attempts at developing complexes have often failed. The newly built Printworks urban development in Manchester will incorporate a wide variety of leisure facilities, including bars, clubs, restaurants and cinemas. All leisure outlets will be built under a giant sky cover, allowing longer opening hours and greater use of late night opening.

Article Abstract:
The British Lottery Sports Fund (LSF) analyses requests for National Lottery funding for artificial turfing requirements using standardised methods. It has already agreed to 47 turfing projects and bases its analysis on the sports facility's strategic need for the product, the product's adhesion to technical design standards, the project implementation plans and financial arrangements. Current applications amount to over three times the value of Lottery funding.
