Carocell Bio is innovating by developing patented anti-inflammatory peptides delivered via nanoparticles to address severe inflammatory conditions such as atopic dermatitis. Their primary peptide, JEL0305, not only halts inflammation but also prevents its initiation, as evidenced by its effectiveness in reducing inflammation in human AD biopsies and burn tissue. With AD impacting a substantial population and costing $21 billion yearly for unsafe treatments, Carocell Bio's safer peptide remedy has the potential to avert AD recurrence. Additionally, their pioneering approach to skin-related inflammation involves topical peptide products that target mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), a crucial element in inflammation. This breakthrough offers promise for managing and forestalling AD and mitigating skin aging.

Delavals (Brewers) Ltd is a company based in the North East of England and is operated by two brothers, John and David Gilfillan. The Company recently won the ‘Small Business of the Year 2014’ award at the Northumberland Business Awards.The inspiration for the business was the purchase of Seaton Delaval Hall (in Northumberland) by the National Trust in 2009. The Hall had a history of brewing over 200 years ago and provided the inspiration for Delavals first beer – Seaton Delaval Hall Pale Ale (4.3% ABV) – which is based on a 200 year old recipe once brewed at the Hall (adapted for today’s palate). In order to begin the process of turning the business from a lifestyle entity into a commercial business, Delavals became an official licencee of the National Trust in 2012 for an initial period of 2 years and in Q2 2014 a new longer term licence was agreed. Out of approximately 1,200 breweries in the UK, there is only one officially licenced National Trust brewer & that is Delavals.The Company has the sole and exclusive licence to operate the National Trust Beer Club which it both created and ‘soft’ launched in September 2013.
