The Press Release Resource

This month there are special reports from around the world; an extraordinary account of a 16-year old boy living in the Democratic Republic of Congo who had his life saved by a British surgeon with the aid of a mobile phone; an in-depth look at the phenomenal Da Vinci robot which performs surgery with movements that are free of tremor, shake or risk of human error, and a feature on Lewis Gordon Pugh who is the subject of fascination to medical scientists thirsty for data about his extraordinary capabilities swimming in sub zero temperatures.

Plus there’s an interview with actor Tom Felton, who plays Draco in the Harry Potter films, top tips on how to raise children from the Obamas and Victoria Hislop enthusing about why so many British women are captivated by the Greek Islands.

The School of Life’s collaboration with The Providores –co- owned by Peter Gordon and Michael McGrath – offers the opportunity for strangers to engage in a vital and honest exchange of ideas while relishing a diverse palette of flavours combined with culinary intelligence and wit.

The battle is being fought for the centre ground of British politics. Ideological divisions between the two main parties seem to be melting faster than the financial system or the polar ice caps. The School of Life is adding to the heat, by hosting the most vital debate of the day: Red Tory vs Blue Labour.
