27/4/2022

 
Picture
MDP will again be at the NSBRC Show this May. Come and meet the team at the Professional Services Hub and get free 1:1 professional planning advice about your project. 

Produced by the National Self Build & Renovation Centre (NSBRC), the UK’s award winning Self Build and Home Improvements Visitor Centre, their May Show offers two full days of master-classes, case studies, seminars and an unrivalled line up of experts on hand to share their advice. It is a brilliant event if you are seeking a plot to build a brand new house, renovating a tired property or thinking about extending your existing home.

One highlight of the show will be the new ‘cost of living surgery’ exploring how we can we mitigate against rising energy costs, and other increasing costs, in our homes? A range of experts explore the technologies and methods available to us, including; improving insulation, air source heat pumps, solar panels, electric vehicles and more. 
 
The Show has a timetable packed full of informative and impartial talks, to help inspire your homebuilding plans. Alongside 200+ exhibitors within the NSBRC’s ‘Trade Village’, the ‘Professional Services Hub’ is the place to go for independent, expert advice from a range of specialists. You'll find a number of Architects and Designers, as well as experts on Planning, Project Management, Site Safety, Landscaping and more. 
 
In the Build It Theatre you will hear key topics being discussed including; finding land, budgeting, planning and the new government backed ‘Help to Build’ scheme.
