Bellway land teams host barbecue in Bristol to highlight work across the region

Bellway hosted a networking event in Bristol to promote the work of its land teams across the South West.

The informal barbecue and drinks event was held at Racks Bar & Kitchen in Clifton, where representatives from Bellway Strategic Land and the land team from Bellway’s South West division were on hand to welcome guests. 

The restaurant in St Paul’s Road was the ideal setting for the teams to connect with landowners, agents and consultants and discuss possible development opportunities in the region.

Richard Burrows, Bellway Strategic Land Director for the South West and Wales, said: “It was great to see such a good turnout at this event which provided the perfect opportunity for our team to meet professionals involved in the land development sector in this area.

“We were able to network and share ideas and thoughts in a relaxed and informal atmosphere which was conducive to creating new connections.

“As an established company with proven expertise as a land development partner, we are keen to talk face-to-face with landowners and agents across the region to help identify opportunities to deliver much-needed new housing and to ensure that all possible options for land parcels are explored.” 

Sam Sowden, Bellway South West Land Director, said: “We are one of the most respected and experienced developers operating in the South West and have a strong track record for delivering sustainable housing developments for communities throughout the region.

“Our commitment to providing quality housing is demonstrated by the fact that we have achieved five-star status with the Home Builders Federation for eight years running and it was good to have the opportunity to share our ethos and approach with existing and potential industry partners at the event.

“We’d like to thank the staff at Racks Bar & Kitchen who looked after us so well. The evening was a great success and we are looking forward to building on the connections made to develop new partnerships and deliver further new homes in the region.”
