Leonard Cheshire Disability Moving Into Greenmeadow
Developer Macob has let the first unit on the second 80,000
sq ft phase at Greenmeadow Springs, a major business park at junction
32 of the M4.
Leonard Cheshire Disability is moving its Wales and West Midlands regional operations team into a 2,355 sq ft unit.
Leonard Cheshire Disability is one of the UK's leading disability
charities which aims to help people live independently. It currently
supports over 21,000 disabled people in the UK and works in 52 countries.
The regional office is successfully expanding the range of services
it offers to disabled people in Wales and needed to relocate from its
current base at Danybryn Cheshire Home in Radyr to larger accommodation.
The charity is planning to move to Greenmeadow Springs at the end of
April.
Margaret Street, Regional Director of Leonard Cheshire commented, "Our
new offices at Greenmeadow Springs provide much needed larger, modern
office facilities. They are ideally located close to our current base
as well as Cardiff and the M4. We are very much looking forward to
moving in and offering a better equipped, more accessible meeting place
for the individuals and partner organisations we work with."
Wayne Rees, Technical Director at Macob, said
"We welcome Leonard Cheshire Disability to Greenmeadow Springs, one of our flagship developments within our portfolio. We are receiving strong interest in the new units, particularly from local companies looking to expand locally to a prestigious office location. We expect to complete further deals here soon as the nine units on the new phase are now becoming available for occupation."
DTZ and Emanuel Jones are the marketing agents for the scheme. David Williams of Emanuel Jones said
"There is no doubt that the quality and location of this development continues to be a major pull for companies requiring commercial space."
Gary Carver of DTZ added
"We are in discussions with a number of interested parties and are encouraged by the current interest we have."
Greenmeadow Springs has established itself as a leading out-of-town business park development along the South Wales M4 corridor. Around 400 jobs have been created to date and it is home to a number of national occupiers including Barratt, Connaught, Nationwide Building Society, Cadarn Housing Association, Ashtenne and Bank of England.
