This year the Urban&Civic team went to Milton Keynes for our company Away Day. Held at Unity Place located in the heart of Milton Keynes and only a good dice roll away from our Whitehouse, Fairfields and MK Western Expansion strategic sites.
Having developed a legendary status, all previous away days have had a theme and this year’s was no different. Instead of just getting through the agenda we went round the ‘board’ monopoly style without landing in jail.
The away day is where our corporate goals and mission are unpacked and this year we really focused on our company culture and what it means to us at U&C as well as learning more about Milton Keynes.
There was a panel discussion, made up of representative from planners DLA (who are based in Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes City Council and engineers WSP, as well as stats packed briefing by Nigel on the growth of incredible growth of this globally famous New Town.
Site tours, entertainment and competitive quizzes and challenges rounded off an exceptional Away Day. Everyone left wondering how we are going to top this next year … but then we ask that every year. The organising committee has never let us down yet.
