We have supported the Minster Quarter regeneration which will transform the 5.2-acre former Civic Centre into a vibrant mixed-use neighbourhood. The £250 million Minster Quarter Central scheme, led by McLaren Living, will deliver over 600 energy-efficient homes, 40,000 sq ft of retail, workspace and a 102-bed hotel, plus new public spaces like Hexagon Square, a community hub and improved public access.

Since 2019 we have managed the One Public Estate (OPE)  programme across the Berkshire six unitary council areas. In that time partners benefited from over £12m to support housing and regeneration projects across the county.

Members of the team undertook two Opportunity Development Fund projects to engage with East Sussex public sector partners to identify and evaluate a pipeline of housing development sites across the county.

Our team working with Thames Valley Berkshire LEP developed and delivered the concept to support Berkshire's attendance at UKREiiF exploiting the county's film-making connection with Star Wars, producing an investment prospectus covering all six unitary authorities.
