Formerly known as St. Modwen Properties (NOT IN USE)

It was fantastic to be be in attendance yesterday as Waters Corporation officially launched their new 45,000sq ft state-of-the-art facility at Longbridge Business Park. This opening sees high-end manufacturing jobs return to Longbridge for the first time in almost two decades following the closure of the MG Rover car plant back in 2005, and represents a significant investment in the region by Waters. 💬 Chris Ross, Senior Vice President of Operations at Waters Corporation, said: "The opening of our Longbridge facility is an important next step for Waters and our employees with a modern, fit-for-purpose space to support their innovative and important work. This state-of-the-art precision engineering centre expands our manufacturing footprint in the region and also provides a highly desirable working environment to support future growth and the potential for additional skilled jobs."

🏆 Absolutely thrilled to say that last night St. Modwen was named Commercial Developer of the Year at the Insider Media Midlands Property Awards. The judges said: "A flurry of commercial deals and the opening of the new River Rea Nature Trail has marked the fruition of St. Modwen's redevelopment of Longbridge, one of the UK's most significant and long-term regeneration projects." Congratulations to all the winners on what was a fantastic evening - it is clear that the property sector is thriving in the region! Bethany Miller Rob Flavell

This time last week we welcomed colleagues from across St. Modwen Homes, our suppliers, contractors and wider network as we came together for the annual St. Modwen Charity Run for LandAid. 🏃♂️ 🏃♀️ With both 5k and 10k routes mapped out around Longbridge and Cofton Park, the race was completed by over 400 runners who have raised over £53,000 so far – a record total for the event! We’re delighted that the race is becoming a fixture in the Midlands property calendar and continues to grow whilst raising vital funds towards supporting LandAid’s mission to end youth homelessness. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody who braved the conditions to take part, volunteer, donate or help to organise such a fantastic day. Here are a few of our favourite photos from the race: 📸

✔ St. Modwen Charity Run for LandAid 2024. What a day we had last week as more than 400 property professionals took to the streets of Longbridge to complete either a 5km or 10km route, all in the name of charity. It was amazing to see so many smiling faces on the day - and we even managed to just about avoid the downpour. You can still donate here towards a wonderful cause and every penny counts as the final we finalise the fundraising figure for this year's event: https://lnkd.in/e7TsWEXG Thank you to the amazing team internally who organised another spectacular day alongside our event partners Innovation Sports. And a huge thank you to all of our event sponsors - without you there would be no race at all. Full results, photos and fundraising totals to follow shortly 😃

Today's the day! 🏃 We can't wait to welcome more runners than ever before to Longbridge for our annual St. Modwen Charity Run for LandAid. See you all soon! 👋

We're very excited to welcome a record number of runners to Longbridge for tomorrow's Charity Run for LandAid. However, we've had a couple of volunteer drop-outs so close to the day, so we would love to encourage anybody who wants to help support the event to please contact David Atack MRICS or Samantha Dorman. Neither this - nor the weather! - will stop us from raising crucial funds for a wonderful charity tomorrow, but if you can help us make the event as smooth as possible then you'll be rewarded with food and drinks at the fantastic Herbert's Yard. See you all tomorrow!

Everybody at St. Modwen was devastated to hear the tragic news of the passing of Claire Lomas MBE this weekend. Claire was a great friend to St. Modwen and was a regular at our company events, inspiring our people by sharing her incredible story, and many of the team have taken part in fundraising efforts to support her aim to raise £1m for Nicholls Spinal Injury Foundation (nsif) When Claire joined us for International Women’s Day this year, she said something which seems ever more poignant today: “If I carried on dwelling on the things I’d lost I wouldn’t have had the best days of my life. Let’s keep making it a more inclusive world and smash those barriers out the way”. On behalf of St. Modwen, Becky Cund FCIPD said: “Claire was one of the most inspirational ladies that you could ever wish to meet. Her story is one of strength, determination and courage, and she proved that anything is possible. I am so grateful that I was privileged enough to know her and be part of her amazing efforts to raise almost £1 million for the Nicholls Spinal Injury Foundation. When she died, she was at a grand total of £911,414.56 so if you want to help her get to that magic £1 million in her memory – you can do so here: https://lnkd.in/ecrFaPHj .” Our thoughts and love go to her husband Dan, her daughters Maisie and Chloe, and all her friends and family.

👏 Please join us in offering a huge congratulations to our very own Bethany Miller who has been nominated for the Rising Star - Commercial award at this year's Property Week Inspiring Women In Property Awards. Beth has been on of the driving forces behind our regeneration of Longbridge and it is brilliant to see her efforts recognised by such a prestigious industry body. Best of luck on the night!
