Middlesbrough and Teesside Philanthropic Foundation charity. Up to 600 vulnerable children and their grandparents - their "kinship carers" - would be supported by a £100,000 donation when parents were unable to look after the children due to drug or alcohol misuse. Middlesbrough and Teesside Philanthropic Foundation The Middlesbrough and Teesside Philanthropic Foundation is a philanthropic and charitable organization that was established in March 2011 in Middlesbrough, England as a patriotic and activist group which aims to raise money from businesses and affluent individuals to make Teesside a better place in which to live, work and do business. Andy Preston set up the foundation with the
Teesside Refinery a year. Today the Teesside Refinery is a crude oil reception, storage and trans-shipment installation. Operations consist of both processing and tanker loading facilities and cover a site. Stabilised oil is stored in a tank farm at Greatham. A corridor containing pipelines, communications and utility services links the two sites, operated jointly by 270 employees. In its 35 years of operations, the terminal has processed over five billion barrels of oil, seen 15,000 ships visit their jetties and had a first-class safety record. The plant has also been run with a downtime of less than 24 hours in 30 years.
