We live in a world where fast, reliable connectivity is as necessary as water, electricity or roads. Yet in many new developments, it’s still treated as an after-thought, installed once homes are already occupied. Residents move in, only to face months of poor mobile signal and patchy broadband while contractors return to dig up newly finished pavements and disturb finished landscaping. The result is entirely avoidable disruption and mess.

Following the unforgettable night, we had a catch up with Ollie Lamgham, our HEA Trainee/Apprentice of the Year 2025, to hear how he’s feeling in the aftermath of such an event.

Feeling safe should not depend on the time of day. Yet for many people, particularly women, the simple act of walking home at night can become a source of anxiety. Poorly lit routes, dark corners and inconsistent lighting levels contribute directly to a heightened fear of crime and can, in some cases, create conditions where crime is more likely to occur.
