We are pleased to announce we will be working in partnership with McLaren Construction to deliver the design and build MEP package for High Leigh Primary School in Hoddesdon. ๐ซ
This new two-form entry primary school, which replaces the existing one-form entry Westfield Community Primary School, will accommodate 420 pupils aged 4-11 and will include an integrated 30-place nursery. It will provide additional space to serve the new High Leigh Garden Village where it is located.
Our Thames Valley Contracts team will lead the design and installation of the MEP package, marking our first collaboration with McLaren Construction. ๐ทโโ๏ธ ๐ทโโ๏ธ
We look forward to being a part of this exciting project! ๐

Congratulations to our joint winners! ๐
Natalie Reader, Accounts Manager & Matt Figgins, Finance Manager
Matt and Natalie were nominated for this quarterโs Employee Recognition Award for their joint effort in implementing a new accounting system across all teams, including Procurement and Surveying. Their joint action ensured that every member of the accounts team fully understood the new system and they worked closely with all teams to ensure a seamless transition.
Natalie and Matt have truly embodied our company values of Sustainability, Integrity, Collaboration and Ownership through their collaborative approach, by prioritising proper implementation to minimise disruption to operations, and empower all teams to leverage the full potential of the new software.
Well done to you both and thank you! ๐

Last month we bid farewell to three legendary members of our team, each leaving behind a mark on Hopkins with their combined 16 years of service. While their departure leaves a void, we couldn’t be happier for them starting their next chapter in life.
๐ Join us in congratulating:
Brian Hopwood, Network Installer
Peter Lawrence, Senior Project Manager
Alan Farnes, Senior Site Supervisor
Brian has been instrumental in our specialist infrastructure department, spearheading major projects such as St. Marks School, Moulsecoomb Student Accommodation, and beyond.
Peter’s infectious energy and leadership has been integral to the success of our Thames Valley Regionโs team since its inception.
Alanโs dedication to develop positive relationships with our clients to provide the best outcome on his assigned projects, whilst always teaching our apprentices the golden rule of being a quality installer โmeasure twice, cut onceโ will undoubtedly be missed.
As they seek new adventures, we extend our heartfelt wishes for success and fulfilment in all their endeavours. Though they may no longer be colleagues, they will remain cherished friends at Hopkins.
Thank you, Brian, Peter, and Alan, for your years of dedication and service.
We’re reaching out to gain support for our Specialist Infrastructure Engineer, Danny Jeffs, as he undertakes a solo 100-mile hike across the rugged terrain of the Jurassic Coast. ๐๐ฏ ๐ซ๐ถ๐ด๐ต ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ต๐ฉ, Danny will embark on this challenging journey to raise vital funds for the remarkable Sophie’s Legacy charity.
