Construction Excellence Southwest Cornwall Summer Boat Trip

Laurence Associates was pleased to take part in the annual summer boat trip hosted by the Construction Excellence Southwest Cornwall Club.

Representing the practice, Design Director Mark James and Associate Planner Sam Fuller joined fellow members from across the construction industry for an enjoyable evening of networking, collaboration and conversation along the Cornish coastline.

The event brought together professionals from across the built environment sector, providing an opportunity to strengthen existing relationships, meet new industry contacts and celebrate the collaborative approach that supports successful projects throughout Cornwall.

At Laurence Associates, we recognise the importance of being actively involved within the local construction community. Events such as these provide valuable opportunities to exchange ideas, share knowledge and maintain strong connections with architects, planners, contractors, consultants and other professionals working across the industry.

As a multidisciplinary architectural and planning practice based in Cornwall, Laurence Associates continues to work alongside a wide range of industry partners to deliver thoughtful, considered developments that respond positively to their surroundings.

We would like to thank the Construction Excellence Southwest Cornwall Club for organising another successful event and for bringing together members of the local construction community for an enjoyable and memorable day.
