Claridges

Claridge's, in the heart of Mayfair, is a five-star luxury hotel favoured by royalty and celebrities. Here, things are done a little differently. Explore the marvels of the universe, and unravel the mysteries of science. From the vastness of space to the intricacies of the human body, we'll embark on a voyage of discovery. British author Edgar Wallace was a powerhouse in the early 20th century. Over three decades, he wrote 175 novels, 40 collections of short stories, 24 plays, and hundreds of serialised stories for pulp magazines. And yet, he is not well remembered today. We focus exclusively on end of life. We know that even making that first phone call may be a difficult or stressful thing to do. At such a sensitive time, your conversation with our considerate care coordinators will be treated with the utmost respect and understanding. The world around us is becoming more uncertain, making the role of national defence more important than ever. As demand grows, so must we. But growth on this scale isn't just about building more; it's about delivering differently. In 1946, Marcel Boussac, a successful entrepreneur known as the richest man in France, invited Dior to design for Philippe et Gaston, a Paris fashion house launched in 1925. Dior refused, wishing to make a fresh start under his own name, rather than reviving an old brand. On the 8th of December 1946, with Boussac's backing, Dior founded his fashion house.
