...Belvoir Park Ltd (BPL) Set in over 200 hectares of some of England’s finest countryside, Belvoir Park is a premier sporting country estate, owned and operated by Belvoir Park Limited (BPL). The business aims to be a top international luxury leisure destination with guests attracted from all over the world (see Fig. 1). BPL’s Managing Director, Wilhelm Deboos-Parker, is known for his fastidious attention to detail. Further, he has very high expectations of BPL’s staff, insisting that their demeanour is an integral aspect of the guest’s experience. Wilhelm’s focus is first and foremost on the guest’s perspective, yet he is willing to listen to ideas from members of staff about how the guest’s stay might be enhanced. Charm personified with guests, many former staff learnt too late that he is not a man with whom to argue. At the heart of the operation, and first seen from the sweeping driveway, is the magnificent and tastefully renovated 17th century country mansion. The mansion is now primarily used as the reception and restaurant. Although there are a dozen suites and rooms in the mansion itself, the majority of the accommodation is in the former stable and carriage blocks. Room rates vary, from a published £780 (per room, per night) for the best suite in the mansion, down to about £300 for a double room in the stable block. However, the actual prices charged can vary because BPL adopts price discrimination. Further, prices also reflect a number of variables such...

Sometimes public health activities involve helping individuals, at other times they involve dealing with wider factors that have an impact on the health of many people (for example an age-group, an ethnic group, a locality, or a country).While medicine and nursing are vital for helping and supporting people when they fall ill, work in public health contributes to reducing the causes of ill-health and improving people's health and wellbeing.

...analyze us, or taking surveys. The LSI survey is a way we can see where we fit in amongst other individuals. This survey helps assess our personality characteristics and other traits according to how we interact in society. I took the survey to see where my personality traits rate with other people. I will go over the results and how a person can learn and change from them. The LSI survey is a circle that is broken in many parts. There are 3 areas that the circle is broken into which are satisfaction needs, task orientation, and security needs. The primary part is the satisfaction needs whereas the backup tells you what causes these traits. When it comes to the scoring of the survey I had my highest in the constructive styles 1, 2, 11, and 12. These help with self-enhancing thinking and behavior that causes satisfaction. Number 1 is the humanistic encouraging The Humanistic-Encouraging scale measures our interest in people, our tendency to care about others, and our ability to encourage them to improve. Humanistic-Encouraging people are accepting of themselves, and accept others for who they are without any issues. I believe I am definitely like this because I am not a judgmental person.

No one should feel like an outsider in America, according to King. So he wanted to help them out 2. They picked a time near Easter for direct action because besides Christmas time, it’s the main shopping period of the year. They wanted to bring pressure to put on the merchants that there should be changes made. 3. He insist on direct action in Birmingham because it dramatizes the issue and rings tension to the community to make a situation so that their only choice is to negotiate 4. It’s impossible for blacks to continue to “wait” because they have been waiting for more than 340 years for change, and not a lot has changed. Waiting for them means that there’s little chance for anything to ever happen. 5. Personal examples the King included was about his daughter asking questions about why things are the way they are for black people. 6. A just law is a manmade code that squares with the moral law or law of God. An unjust law is a human law that is out of harmony with moral laws. It’s important because it gives segregators false superiority 7. A law is unjust if it degrades a human’s personality 8. King says that everything Hitler did was “legal” because helping out Jews was considered “illegal” 9. King is disappointed in the white moderate because they are more devoted to order than justice...

...Unit 12 M1- Compare historical and current features of Public Health. In this part of the assessment I am going to compare elements of historical Public health to the elements of today. By looking at my timeline presented in P2 I am going to research and compare these elements to those of today. Them concluding the overall comparison of the both. In the 19th century public health was less of a function of government and instead it was a function of charitable organizations and volunteers. These were people how left that they had a religious duty to do so and work to help the poor, and those who were against their living conditions. After time science gained a better understanding of the causes of diseases and how they were spread and worked. This then caused public pressure on then government to study and research the illnesses, keep statistics and provide an early warning of epidemencs. For example of a UK policy in the 19th century is The Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834, this was to insure that the lower class people were being looked after by charity or the landowners and also by they higher class people and the wealthy people, also that anyone that was not disabled and was capable should not receive help or relief unless they worked in a workhouse or with orphans, abandoned children, the elderly, of if they were unmarried mothers, mentally or physically ill and sick. This act also provided strict conditions in the work houses, and ensure that the poor families worked...
