“Our conservatory was so hot in summer and
freezing cold in winter we hardly ever used it...
…but now we’ve replaced the old glass roof with a Guardian™ fully tiled
warm roof we can sit back and relax. It’s cosy & warm, nice & quiet and
our conservatory is now the room we always wanted it to be”.
In just a few days we will transform your
old conservatory into a beautiful living space...
...and here’s how we do it, first of all we remove the roof, we will then construct
& install the lightweight aluminium frame, next we add the high performance
insulated roof before the interior is finished to your specification.

Down Under
Comes Out on Top
Lib Jones, Communications Manager at
Section UK HQ, entered the Guinness Forum
photo caption competition and won!
Lib’s winning entry, ‘A whole new meaning to
Michelle Harris from ‘Down Under’’, resulted
in her being awarded with her very own IPA
Guinness Challenge Coin. She was also the first
ever recipient of the Gold Coin.
Lib was delighted with her prize and celebrated
in the best way possible - sharing a Guinness
with her police bear and Facebook profile
character.
In September, 2013, the IPA Guinness Forum
was founded in Copenhagen. The Guinness
Forum wants to harness friendships - but
without rules, geographical boundaries or
politics. The aim is simple - to have fun. It
is said that people rarely succeed unless
they have fun in what they are doing. So
membership of the Forum is open to anyone
who wants to have fun. Members will be issued
with a Guinness Forum Challenge Coin as proof
of membership.
The history of Challenge Coins dates back to
the first world war. There are many varying
stories as to their origin, but a common theme
was that it became tradition to ensure that all
members carried their coin at all times. This
was accomplished through a challenge in the
following manner - a challenger would ask
to see the coin. If the challenged could not
produce a coin, they were required to buy a
drink of choice for the person who challenged
them. If the challenged person produced a
coin, then the challenging person was required
to pay for the drink. This tradition continued
on throughout the war and for many years
after the war while surviving servicemen were
still alive.
