Regeneration

Transforming one large derelict space into four flexible units, creating 5,305mof prime retail space, the works consists of a new features entrance to the front elevation, existing facade repair, roof repair works, internal steel staircases, lift installation, and MEP (mechanical, electrical and plumbing) installation. 

The completed project has transformed this area of the town centre, turning the large derelict former British Homes Stores site into a modern and attractive set of shop units.

Doing the right thing

The site team supported several social value initiatives and encouraged our supply chain to assist in delivering the programme.

Volunteers from the site participated in gardening exercises at three locations around Stockport, including renovating spaces at Suffragettes Square. The team helped at the initial clean up session of the square and donated materials to help with the regeneration.

The site team also hosted several of initiatives to support wellbeing, with an emphasis on mental health.

We successfully exceeded our social value target of £2,970,000, with a final figure of £4,770,000.
