Covid Contract Family Connections
Devizes 1957 - Henry Glass & Christine Smith
Daughter is married to co-founder of Unispace
Son is a director of Agile Medical
Grandaughter married to director of Unispace
Grandaughter married to director of Kingsbury Press

Brother of co-founder of Unispace is a director of Ascot Signs
Cousins of co-founder of Unispace are directors of Carlton Packaging
Uncle of director of Unispace is brother in law of director of Bryson Products.
Unispace PPE contracts transferred to Sante Global - same links.

Seven Companies that have won a total of almost £1 billion in contracts from the DHSC. Unispace, Agile Medical, Kingsbury Press, Ascot Signs, Carlton Packaging, Bryson Products & Sante Global. I also suspect there could be links to Clandeboye Agencies but unable to clarify.

Last week the Good Law Project reported on the relationship between Michelle Donelan MP & Tom Turner a director of Stronghold Global. I will add some more links to other contracts

https://twitter.com/GoodLawProject/status/1457465635345158153?s=20

Tom Turner father is a director of Toffeln Ltd
Tom Turner's uncle is a director of Safety innovation for Tower Supplies
Tom has a cousin whose wive's cousin is a director of Origin Packaging
Who in turn has a brother in law who is a director of Unispace now Sante Global

Tom's dad is a co director at Toffeln with another director, who in turn is cousin of a director at Springfield Supplies & Projects.

Then we have Medco Solutions
A director who is an ex employee & shareholder of Unispace,
Another director that was a partner in another company with one of the Bryson Products family.
The directors brother is the brother in law of one of the directors of Southgate Global

So a further 5 companies Toffeln, Tower Supplies, Origin Packaging, Springfield Supplies, Medco Solutions accounting for another £617 million. Again which eventually lead you to the previous family links.

Next comes Inivos, which links to Tom Turner in a distant way, through cousins & an aunty.
In fact Tom's cousin's wife (who incidentally he works with), is another that has family links to Toffeln, Tower Supplies, Inivos, Origin Packaging, Kingsbury Press & Unispace.

Sterilabs are another company that link in with the group but not in a family way (well maybe but I couldn't find one!), there big £270 million contract is in conjunction with Sante Global LLP (formerly Unispace for PPE).

For those not familiar with the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church (formerly Exclusive Brethren). They have approx 50,000 members worldwide, with approx 16,000 in the UK. They are led by Bruce D Hales based in Sydney. The church say don't get involved in the members companies.

In the UK they had a battle with the Charity Commission over their charity status back in 2013 and they were heavily backed by many Conservative MP's. They have a number of what I would term as central charities as well as the individual gospel hall charities.

The central charities tend to come under The Grace Trust, which saw income increase £25 million in 2020 to £127 million. This was in part due to trading in PPE. Under the Grace Trust you have UBT (EU) Ltd (Business Adivsory) & OneSchool Global (the schools).

The Grace Trust is the major funder of the Rapid Relief Team (RRT), that offer assistance to emergency services in the form of catering at major incidents. The RRT is staffed by volunteers from the Plymouth Brethren CC members. Set up at time of charity commission battle.

The Grace Trust supports other charities with around £2 million from their income of £127 million, the vast majority goes the business advisory & the schools for brethren children. The next part of the thread I will show how the RRT board members are linked to the Covid contracts

The RRT according to companies house has 7 current directors and 5 ex directors. Starting with the ex directors
One is the Brother in Law of a director of Blueleaf who won a £4 million contract with DHSC though the DHSC spend show over £30 million spent with Blueleaf

One is the nephew of another director of Blueleaf.
One is in laws with one of the owners of Tower Supplies.
One has a brother in law who is a cousin of the Inivos directors.

Current directors
One is the brother of two directors of Medco Solutions & also the brother in law of a director of Southgate Global when they won their contract.
One is an uncle of Tom Turner and co owns Toffeln
Another two are directors of companies winning non DHSC contracts

Final additions to the thread tonight. A list of companies & contracts won with DHSC
Unispace (transfer to Sante Global) £679 million
Medco Solutions (new start up) £471 million
Sterilabs (clinical diagnostics) in partnership with Sante Global £272 million
Top 3 £1.42 Billion

Inivos £126 million
Origin Packaging £121 million
Clandeboye Agencies £107 million
Tower Supplies £40 million
Blueleaf £31/£4 million - DHSC to decide!
Accora £18 million
Kingsbury Press £12 million
Sterilabs (no partner) £9 million
Bryson Products £3.9 million
Total £1.9 Billion

Carlton Packaging £3 million
Ascot Signs £2.3 million
Springfield Supplies, Southgate Global, Agile Medical £0.7 million

So not far from £2 billion from 17 companies on DHSC only contracts
