No post-work slump at St Pancras Campus last week! Our team brought the energy with the building's first tenant event.
 
Held in the building's impressive reception space, the event featured a live DJ, roaming magician and popular prize grabber activation. It was great to see tenants staying to connect and enjoy the event.
 
We’re now turning our attention to the festive season, plans for Christmas are well underway - watch this space!

Over the August bank holiday Manchester Fort was buzzing with activity as we delivered our Summer Shop & Win event. Shoppers enjoyed live music, roaming performers, games for all ages and the chance to take home some brilliant prizes.​

It was great to see so many people getting involved and enjoying the day.​

In early September, @theportsolent welcomed back their popular 999 Family Fun Day, a celebration of Hampshire’s emergency services and their vital work.​ Families met police, ambulance and fire crews, explored vintage American police cars, tried out an Air Ambulance simulator, and learnt life-saving skills with SCAS.​

Younger visitors also enjoyed face painting and plenty of fun activities.​ A brilliant turnout and a great day for the community.​

This summer we brought a summer camp to @onestopperrybarr. A week of free, scout-themed activities designed to bring the community together. The mall was transformed into a fun, interactive space for families, with plenty of hands-on things to do.​

The response was fantastic, with more than 600 crafts completed across the six days. The marshmallow catapults proved especially popular and kept children of all ages entertained. Visitors also enjoyed taking part in the camp-style trail as they explored the centre.
