Happy Reels! Ronald McDonald House gets Big Picture
About Ronald McDonald House
Ronald McDonald House Charities UK is an independent Charity, which operates 14 Houses across England, Wales, and Scotland, providing free ‘home away from home’ accommodation and support. The Houses keep families together, close to their children in hospital. They provide a place to sleep, cook and retain some sense of normal life; a lifeline for families at a very stressful time, especially when they are far from home.
We’re pleased to announce that The Big Picture has made a big contribution to a deserving cause.
Ronald McDonald House Birmingham offers families with sick children a place to stay while youngsters undergo treatment at nearby Birmingham Children’s Hospital.
Last week, we finished installation of a cinema at the location, a space that offers families a sense of normality during challenging times.
Installed with support from community interest company, Together for Cinema, the new room features 100-inch screen with cinema-style speaker system, blackout blinds, dimmable lighting and a popcorn machine.

Tech Tuesday – Linn’s Klimax

With this in mind, get in touch with us for details on how we can bring Cinergy to your home.
Arcam has launched a new version of their AVR11 HDA that now iKlimax is the ultimate expression of Linn’s audio/digital technology expertise.
The beating heart is the first all-Linn digital to analogue converter, Organik DAC, which enables the most natural sounding product they’ve ever made. Machined from special grade aluminium, the mass of the product, coupled with internal damping, protects the electronic components from vibrations in the room. Furthermore, precision-cut pockets and partitions separate the analogue, digital and power stages, protecting the audio from interference.
