We want to share with you first our refreshed brand which you will see in use from today! We are really excited to share this news with you, as part of our business plans to retain what makes us unique whilst continuing to evolve across all sectors of the Brookbanks business.

Our new brand reinforces what we value most, in understanding our clients’ individual needs, to challenge the status quo and think differently to drive value and deliver great outcomes on all our projects. Further updates will be shared over the next few weeks through our social’s  media channels, website and directly through our teams.

We look forward to working with you and your business over the coming years, and further enhancing our relationship as a key partner in providing a Master Developer role and Technical, Engineering, Commercial and Development Management Consultant Services from initial site selection through planning and implementation into operation over a variety of projects across the UK.

We hope to be able to meet you in person soon and have a proper new brand launch event. In its place for now, we will be making a donation to the Brookbanks’ 2020 charity, the Alzheimer’s Society.

For developers bringing forward significant housing schemes, deciding how education infrastructure obligations should be delivered is rarely straightforward.
