Interactive North Star Iinstarllation? lands in Leeds
to mark the launch of new intercity train operator, Britain - 04 Apr 2016
A giant light installation inspired by the North Star has landed in Leeds today to mark the launch of the new intercity train operator, TransPennine Express (TPE). The interactive installation, designed by Leeds-based light designer, Julia Bickerstaff, encourages the public to share their hopes for ?Where Next?? for the North, which then affects the Star?s colour and brightness.
The shining display of the North?s hopes and views of the future is positioned in Millennium Square in Leeds and measures a giant 6 x 6 metres. The 3D structure has been constructed using Steel and an array of brightly coloured neon tubing and LEDs. The public are being asked to share their ?Where Next?? hope for future of the North in person using an LED magnet or by tweeting @TPExpressTrains with the #hashWhereNext, to help the Star grow brighter.
Designer, Julia Bickerstaff, who was born in Garforth and is still based in Leeds, added: ?With over thirty years? experience working with light, the chance for an installation on my doorstep was an opportunity I couldn?t miss. The Star is designed to reflect that this is a region that?s going places and
that people, places and ideas make it happen.?
As an esteemed local talent in her field, Julia will also be part of the TransPennine Express ?Where Next? Project?, a mentoring programme launching in May that will find, nurture and showcase talent from the route TransPennine Express serves ? supporting the development and growth of the region. Offering advice and guidance to six successful applicants in the fields of Food & Drink, Music and Art, the ?Future Stars? will be selected based on their talent and potential to contribute to cultural, ...

Orphaned Meerkats Thrive After Being Raised on an Aga, Axe Valley Bird & Animal Park, Devon, Britain - 22 Feb 2010
ABANDONED MEERKATS RULE THE ROOST
Brought up on an aga, abandoned meerkats Wren and Rascal had a somewhat unusual start to life.
They and a third sibling were rejected by their mother shortly after being born, tossed out of the den and into the cold.
Luckily for the tiny creatures their abandonment took place at the Axe Valley Bird and Animal Park, which is run by Jayne Collier and her husband Andrew.
Jayne is at a loss to explain why her breeding female rejected the trio, as she has raised youngsters in the past and has even gone on to raise another set since.
Whatever the reason, it was down to Jayne to become adoptive mum to the lonesome babies.
Despite her best ministrations one didn't make it, but Wren and Rascal proved to be made of tougher stuff.
The pair, who were just the size of a finger, spent their first weeks of life inside a glove on top of the Colliers' kitchen Aga
As they grew they were given free-range of the house, which brought out their destructive side.
Following their natural instincts, the dastardly duo spent their days digging and burrowing - scraping out the grouting between the kitchen flagstones and fluffing up the carpet.
And despite their shaky start in life the two certainly weren't timid; they would regularly join the humans for walks around the farm, terrifying the dogs with their sharp teeth.
Eventually Jayne built the tear-away twosome their own new pen, as they wouldn't now be welcomed back by their original family.
So as they approach their first birthday Wren and Racal are kings of their own domain and can even expect the arrival of two new females soon.

Orphaned Meerkats Thrive After Being Raised on an Aga, Axe Valley Bird & Animal Park, Devon, Britain - 22 Feb 2010
ABANDONED MEERKATS RULE THE ROOST
Brought up on an aga, abandoned meerkats Wren and Rascal had a somewhat unusual start to life.
They and a third sibling were rejected by their mother shortly after being born, tossed out of the den and into the cold.
Luckily for the tiny creatures their abandonment took place at the Axe Valley Bird and Animal Park, which is run by Jayne Collier and her husband Andrew.
Jayne is at a loss to explain why her breeding female rejected the trio, as she has raised youngsters in the past and has even gone on to raise another set since.
Whatever the reason, it was down to Jayne to become adoptive mum to the lonesome babies.
Despite her best ministrations one didn't make it, but Wren and Rascal proved to be made of tougher stuff.
The pair, who were just the size of a finger, spent their first weeks of life inside a glove on top of the Colliers' kitchen Aga
As they grew they were given free-range of the house, which brought out their destructive side.
Following their natural instincts, the dastardly duo spent their days digging and burrowing - scraping out the grouting between the kitchen flagstones and fluffing up the carpet.
And despite their shaky start in life the two certainly weren't timid; they would regularly join the humans for walks around the farm, terrifying the dogs with their sharp teeth.
Eventually Jayne built the tear-away twosome their own new pen, as they wouldn't now be welcomed back by their original family.
So as they approach their first birthday Wren and Racal are kings of their own domain and can even expect the arrival of two new females soon.
