New homeowners Sara and Adrian stood in front of their new home, smiling. The home is two storeys high, with orange bricks and dark grey window frames. It was a sunny day and there is blue sky in the background.

The couple are first time buyers and some of our first One Lockleaze residents too. It’s been a busy time, with a new job for Sara and a new home in the same week. Welcome to #Lockleaze both!

On #IWD2025 we shared our technical director's story.

At 16, Elaine was the only woman working on any building site in Northern Ireland. People asked her to make the tea.

Today, women make up just 15% of the industry. Our female directors discuss how we can change this: lnkd.in/eKDb46qE
