We were delighted when planning permission was successfully obtained last year; the fact that it was achieved on program reflects the considerable efforts by Acorn Trinity Square (Julian Hampson and Lucian Grant) put into the community engagement, consideration of our requirements and constraints, and the outstanding design.
Since then they have fully engaged with us and the contractors ensuring clear understanding between all parties. The team have also worked hard to avoid foreseeable problems and overcome the unforeseeable. As a charity taking on a project of this nature, it has been of real benefit working with such diligent and forward-looking developers who have assumed the risk of the project and allowed the charity to maintain and benefit from its investment property holdings.
Once complete, this development will invigorate Trinity Village and will bolster the sustainability and growth of the Trinity House Maritime Charity’s work in support of maritime benevolence, education and safety at sea.
