Nuneaton Development Scoops Gold For Lovell

Affordable housebuilder Lovell is celebrating after its site at Camp Hill, Nuneaton landed a Gold Considerate Constructors Award.

The Camp Hill site's Gold Award was one of only 78 in the whole country, and with 8,500 sites being eligible for an Award, this puts the Camp Hill site right at the very top of its field.

Although Lovell Midlands has an exceptional Constructors record, this was its first ever elusive Gold Award.

It also received a Silver Award for its site in Gloucester and Bronze Awards for sites in Dudley and Winson Green, Birmingham.

The Considerate Constructors Scheme is a national initiative where companies are monitored against a Code of Considerate Practice that commits companies to be considerate and good neighbours, as well as clean, respectful, sage, environmentally conscious, responsible and accountable.

David Gough, Regional Director of Lovell Midlands, said: "This is brilliant news and a real boost for the company. The project team, led by Site Manager Adam Cooper, fully deserve this recognition as they really have committed to making this the best, most considerate site they can. A Gold Award is what everyone in our industry strives towards and they are notoriously difficult to attain. But now, thanks to Adam and the team, we have one."

Out of the 8,500 sites across the country eligible for Awards, only the top scoring 10% of sites are reviewed by an independent panel and just 7.5% are selected for a National Awards. This year 640 were chosen to receive a Bronze, Silver or Gold Award. Lovell's site - Camp Hill Phase 2- is part of a long-term project for Pride in Camp Hill in Nuneaton. It is the second phase community development of eight retail units, state of the art community centre and 229 new homes.
