Jack says:

“Here in the South West the built environment sector is on the cusp of something huge. The Future Homes Standard is just around the corner and regulations are tightening. Meanwhile, local planning authorities in Devon and Cornwall have introduced stringent new environmental requirements and many clients are prioritising high levels of sustainability.

“The built environment sector is transforming around us and ensuring projects meet regulations and clients’ needs is more important than ever before.

“I feel a deep sense of mission to use my skills to make a difference as our built environment continues to transform. That is what inspired me to found my freelance consultancy business, so that I can continue providing practical ways to improve our buildings – and support the people who design, build and use them.”
