Tim Clark, director KPW said: "We have many years
experience in affordable housing and our selection onto the
Quantum Consortium is an achievement to our commitment
to this sector. Our intention when working with Framework
members is to develop positive working relationships based on
quality of outputs, generation of opportunities and value for
money. Peartree Mews at Bulwell Lane serves as an
excellent example of this objective."
Hayley Sowter, Land Manager for Derwent Living added:
"Derwent is very pleased with the development. We have
worked alongside KPW to create a scheme which we hope
will be a catalyst for regeneration in the prominent area of
Basford."
