May 2016: Millfields building award

The building that we hide away in has been awarded the Community Benefit award from the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).

Genesis Building, Plymouth, Devon

​Genesis Building offers economic regeneration and renewal in one of the most deprived areas of Plymouth, supporting entrepreneurial ambition while opening doors for the local community to shape its own future. This business centre is now occupied by new and established businesses, community interest companies and social enterprises and boasts the South West’s largest living wall made up of more than 18,000 plants.

The judges said, “The Genesis Building epitomises the criteria required for the community benefit award.”
