Grand Designs Awards

We signed up thousands of new supporters at this years Grand Designs Live show in London, where we also conducted several GBR seminars with Kevin and the Campaign Director, Simon. We’ve also held talks on GBR at many other events, from Ecobuild, to Greenbuild in the north and the Housing Now virtual conference.

GBR was delighted to sponsor one the awards at the glitzy GD Awards ceremony.

quoteThe campaign was set up three years ago with the ultimate aim of making it easier for owners to eco-refurb their homes. And to a massive extent we achieved just that.

So now when the landscape of home refurb is changing dramatically, it is time for us to take a back seat too and let the politicking end and the real world Great British Refurb commence. signature
