September 2023

Thanks to those of you that could make the meeting on 6th September. Please see update below on the discussions.

We let you know in May that the project would be paused until the government issues clarity on the new fire regulations for tall buildings (for second staircases). We’ve been advised that this decision is expected by the end 2023.

We will continue to keep you updated as we make progress. In the meantime, please do get in touch if you have any questions or concerns. Contact details are on the back of this flyer.
