Team NSBRC celebrates annual Employee Ownership day in Bath

Each year Team NSBRC take a day to celebrate Employee Ownership, and the incredible journey this model has taken our business on since we adopted the structure back in 2014. Friday 23rd June marked the official 11th annual EO Day, which celebrates and aims to raise awareness of the benefits that can come from employee ownership.

This year the team wanted to participate in an activity that was fun and allowed colleagues to spend time with team-mates they might not work with every day. We spent the day off-site in Bath, completing an ‘outdoors escape room’ activity kindly arranged by Amanda – solving puzzles and cryptic challenges while seeing the sites of Bath (designated a World Heritage Site) - followed by an enjoyable team lunch.

In 2024 we will be celebrating ten years of employee ownership and will be announcing some exciting plans around this later this year.

Seize the Moment: Why Now Is the Perfect Time to Self Build Your Dream Home

We received this blog from longstanding exhibitor, Fleming Homes and found the piece inspiring, and wanted to share this with you. We hope this offers encouragement as you embark on your homebuilding project.

"Do not wait until the conditions are perfect to begin. Beginning makes the conditions perfect." Alan Cohen*

Alan Cohen's quote captures a powerful truth that’s particularly relevant to self-building. When the housing market feels uncertain, when interest rates continue to feel elevated in comparison with the record lows of 2020-2021, or when material prices fluctuate, it’s tempting to put the brakes on our plans - to hold off until things calm down.

The Homebuilding Centre Limited - now majority owned by its employees!

Since 2014, our award-winning visitor centre (The National Self Build & Renovation Centre / NSBRC) has been owned and operated by ‘The Homebuilding Centre Limited’, an employee-owned business. We welcomed our first visitors to the NSBRC in 2007 and, eighteen years on, we remain the UK’s only permanent exhibition centre designed specifically to meet the needs of individual self-builders, renovators and home improvers.
