We’ve worked with the Capital team across their business over the years and have always found the service standards to be excellent.
Recently, we’ve been working with the development team who have provided strategic advice, connected to our entire portfolio with consideration to forward funding models for our new build development at Hanningfiled Park in Cheltenham – the advice received was invaluable and resulted in a shift in our business strategy.
The added value you get from this team is driven from their ability to horizon scan in the right places and being bold in their approach to working with clients. We look forward to continue our growth plans with Capital as out trusteed partner.
