It has been a pleasure working with such a dedicated and talented team.

The DM team's hard work and commitment has been invaluable to the success of this project. I want to commend Kate and Claudia. They have been fantastic, acting with professionalism and diligence throughout. Without their dedication and support, ably supported by Caroline and Lexi, we would never have achieved planning permission on what is a high-profile project for SES Water.
