Paddington Square unveils new Bakerloo Line ticket hall and entrance! This doubles the number of ticket gates from five to 11 and provides two new lifts, which give step-free access to a Bakerloo line platform for the first time. The upgrade provides a spacious entrance to the Bakerloo and District & Circle lines, as well as connecting the new pedestrianised piazza to the Underground network. G&T provided #CostManagement and Employer’s Agent services for the new Underground facility as well as the rest of the landmark mixed-used development which makes up the site. Colin Bearne comments: "G&T is very proud to be part of the client team in delivering the Paddington Square development, the opening of the new Bakerloo line ticket hall marks final completion of the construction phase."

It was a pleasure to attend the topping out ceremony for the new special educational needs school for children in Wandsworth. G&T Partner Carolyn Barenbrug, Associate Director Saba Ahmad MAPM and Apprentice Project Manager Evie Garlick were all present at the event. 10 children were invited to sign and draw pictures on one of the main construction beams, which was later lifted into place following speeches by the Council Leader and others. By all accounts, it was a wonderful day and a truly moving experience. This new specialist school will provide places for 192 children with complex needs, offering close to one-to-one care from 163 staff members. G&T is providing #ProjectManagement, #CostManagement and Principal Designer services. #GTProjectNews #Education

Happy Word Mental Health Day! This year's theme is ‘it is time to prioritise mental health in the workplace’. We're observing the day by inviting a guest speaker to tell us her story and start a conversation about work and mental health. Liz McConaghy was the longest serving female crewman on the Royal Air Force Chinook Fleet spanning a 17-year career flying on the aircraft. She has a unique story and now serves as an ambassador for mental health. Learn more about World Mental Health Day here: https://hubs.la/Q02SL5_W0 #WMHD2024 #BusinessWithPurpose #ESG

G&T Director Emma Scott-Miller and Senior Project Manager Ben Ringrow together with Tracy Holgate from Sefton Council recently held a talk with T-Level construction students at Southport College about the development of the new Marine Lakes Event Centre in Southport. Being the Project Manager for the scheme, Emma spoke from first-hand experience about the initial feasibility, challenges and wisdom gained whilst working on one of Southport's future landmarks. Senior Project Manager Ben Ringrow also facilitated taking the students around the demolition site run by DSM Demolition Limited to give them an idea of what a career in construction could look like. Ben Ringrow commented: “With the site being situated just down the road from Southport College, it makes perfect sense to get the students involved throughout the project lifecycle. At Gardiner & Theobald, we are always looking to promote and get involved with local community initiatives and we will continue to do so as the scheme develops.” Read our full case study on the centre here: https://hubs.la/Q02SMk2k0 #Southport #GTProjectNews #BusinessWithPurpose #ESG Image courtesy of ©Southport College
