    Business manager Ruth Berry spent yesterday afternoon at @doddingtonhall Hall & Gardens in Lincolnshire, attending its 'Experience Doddington' corporate venue showcase. 💼🌳 The estate team put on an informative afternoon demonstrating their corporate hospitality and away-day offerings: - Wilder Doddington: An intro to their rewilding project at the new Wild House, followed by a brief safari through the landscape. - Facilities and tours: A look at their accommodation, a newly opened meeting space, and a tour of the hall and gardens. - Networking reception: The afternoon concluded at the Grain Store cafe with local refreshments, networking, and an interesting tour of the MC Tsen Miitary Uniform Collection. It was interesting to see how they have integrated sustainability with high-end corporate facilities. #sustainability #eventplanning #landscapearchitects

    He did it! 🏆🎉 Congratulations to Jake Haywood, our Apprentice Urban Design Planner, who took home the award for Degree Apprentice of the Year at the Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire Apprenticeship Awards last night. Jake was joined at the Crown Plaza in Nottingham by teammates Ruth Berry, Lindsey Arkley CMLI, and Keira Attridge to celebrate the occasion. It was a fantastic evening celebrating local talent, and a big well done to all the other finalists - it was exceptionally tough competition! Having joined us straight from school after completing his A-Levels, Jake has truly thrived in his role and become an invaluable part of our team which is why this recognition so well deserved.

    It was proud moment to attend the official opening of the @nationaltrust Trust visitor centre at @ntsandilands on the Lincolnshire Coast, before it opened to the public for the first time over the weekend. As lead consultant and landscape architect, seeing everyone gather on site to mark this milestone was deeply rewarding. The event was a celebration of years of collaborative effort, bringing together the team, partners, and local stakeholders who helped turn thoughtful, sustainable design into a lasting asset for wildlife and the local community. A huge thank you to: 🌿 Our client the National Trust for hosting a wonderful opening event and for their partnership throughout. 🌿 Shona Hatton, Lindsey Arkley, and Kathryn Dunk in our team for their leadership, skills, and being instrumental in the project 🌿 All supply chain partners and consultants whose hard work brought this space to life. It’s wonderful to watch this beautiful landscape settle in, ready to be cherished by wildlife and the community for years to come. 🌾 @civic_thrivingtogether @jonathanhendryarchitects #LandscapeArchitecture #Sandilands #NationalTrust #Lincolnshire #CommunitySpace #Rewilding #SustainableDesign #NatureReserve

    Yesterday, Shona joined ProCon Nottinghamshire for a fascinating walking tour exploring the developments taking place across Nottingham’s Sports District. 🏙️🌿 Starting at @officialnffc’s City Ground, the morning included presentations and discussions before heading along the River Trent to explore key development sites, including the former high school site, the new bridge and Trent Basin.🚶‍♀️ It was a great opportunity to hear more about the vision for the area, the work already underway and how landscape, regeneration and connectivity are helping to shape the city’s future. A big thank you to ProCon Nottinghamshire for organising, and to everyone involved in sharing their insights including Paul Seddon from Nottingham City Council and representatives from EMCCA and Home England. #nottinghamregeneration #sportsdistrict #landscapearchitecture #trentbasin #proconnottinghamshire

    Not your average Friday afternoon! 🚂 Last week director Shona Hatton joined Leicestershire Women In Construction for an incredible event starting at Loughborough train station. From a live singer entertaining us on the platform to a delicious three-course lunch aboard the Great Central Railway, it was a fantastic way to network. Thank you to @alex_kowalczuk for organising such a memorable experience. It was wonderful catching up with familiar faces such as Denise Knipe at @aspburyplanningandheritage and making new connections along the journey! #WomenInConstruction #Networking #Loughborough #Leicestershire #Construction

    🌿 | Completing @ntsandilands Nature Reserve with the @nationaltrust | 🌿 We are thrilled to see Sandilands Nature Reserve featured in @guardian and other national news today following its official completion and opening ceremony this week. As the lead consultant and landscape architect, our team couldn't be prouder to have led the landscape-driven transformation of a former golf course into a thriving coastal wetland reserve alongside our client, the National Trust, Connected Coast, and our project partners. 🤝 This project is a hugely significant milestone - not only for the National Trust and our team, but for Lincolnshire’s coastline, local communities, and the vital wildlife species (from skylarks to sandwich terns) that now call this sanctuary home. It represents the culmination of years of collaborative effort and demonstrates how thoughtful, sustainable, landscape-led design can create lasting benefits for ecology and visitors alike, ensuring this special landscape can be enjoyed for generations to come. #Landscapearchitecture #NationalTrust #Sandilandsnaturereserve #Lincolnshire #Biodiversity #Sustainabledesign
