A million new homes will be built in the UK over the next ten years. We’re helping visionary people put thought, care, ambition and quality back into housing.
We advise public sector clients on how to deliver long-lasting, attractive housing for their communities, at the right pace and price.
Municipal, led by Claire Bennie, is a housing development consultancy with a soul. We advise ambitious public land-owning clients on how to make the most of their land for the long term. We do this by helping them to set good standards, procure the right partners, and scrutinise quality throughout the development process.
