Building division of NM Group wins two Craftsmanship Awards The building division of engineering and specialist contractor, North Midland Construction PLC (NM Group), has won two awards in the Leicestershire Joint Consultative Committee (LJCC) annual craftsmanship awards which were presented at the recent Leicestershire & Rutland Construction Dinner. The first award is for the conversion of the former WINNERS: (left to right) Sarah Stead, Peter Stuart, Alan Stamford Shoe Works Birchenall (Guest Speaker), Robert Jones and Mick Sanders. factory on Canal Street within the South Wigston conversation area into affordable housing for the East Midlands Housing Group. The £1m regeneration and refurbishment scheme was designed to meet the needs of modern living without compromising the building’s heritage. The NM Group project team and RG+P Architects along with craftsmen worked closely with the conservation team to ensure that the building retained its character whilst also adhering to current building standards. The scheme has been welcomed by local people as it sympathetically developed a site that had remained empty and decaying for over a decade and has now acted as a catalyst for further development of the area. The second award is for the external brickwork on the new £3.4m office building that the company has recently completed for Grove Park Commercial Centre at Grove Park, Enderby. “We are delighted to have won these two craftsmanship awards,” said Robert Jones, business development manager at the NM Group. We work hard to deliver projects to a high standard and winning these awards recognises this.”
