Our stewardship models, provide an effective solution to this problem but also assist with gaining planning approval at the outset. ✳️ 𝐖𝐡𝐨 𝐚𝐦 𝐈? I joined Greenbelt in 2000 holding various roles in the Billing and Financial teams, including processing the billing of our first Greenspace development. Over the past 20 years, I’ve gained extensive knowledge and understanding of this industry and, in my role as Managing Director of Greenbelt, I place strong focus on delivering the best quality of product to our customers.✳️ 𝐖𝐡𝐨𝐦 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩?I provide advice to 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬 on how to best design their open spaces and more importantly provide solutions to ensure they will be sensitively managed in perpetuity. This allows the Developer to dispone all liabilities associated with their newly formed open spaces in a responsible manner. They can leave their project with peace of mind that it will be well looked after for a very long time.
