As I have previously reported, I am keen to establish a link with City University for several reasons. It is where I read Civil Engineering back in the 1970’s, and given that we are a City based livery company that is keen on promoting education as part of our charitable ethos, it seems an obvious choice.Peter Hall (representing the Water Conservation Trust) and I met this week with Dean Professor Ken Grattan (see photograph), to see if we could explore this further.
We had a fascinating tour of the laboratories where they are developing leading edge technologies around the use of fibre optics for continuous monitoring of pollutants and a wide range of other activities relevant to the water and environmental sectors.
Further discussions with the University are planned – watch this space!
