In continuation of the builders' breakfast series, Birketts' residential development team invites you to the next event in Chelmsford. Join us for a morning of networking and engaging discussion, featuring experts from across the sector.

This event will include an interactive session led by Sebastian Corke and Sophie Wallis of Bidwells, focusing on the residential development market. They will explore key challenges and trends from 2025, including the evolving planning landscape and market, and the increasingly competitive strategic land sector.
