Urban buzz, vibrant culture and thriving independent spirit – and mix it with access to fantastic countryside, good schools and excellent housing – and it’s easy to see why Bristol regularly tops the list of the UK’s most desirable places to live.

In focus: Our Bristol office

We moved to Halo in May 2023. It's one of the most sustainable office buildings in the UK and part of the award-winning Finzel’s Reach regeneration project.

To ensure our new home would meet the needs of its people and reflect its core values, the office features extensive indoor planting, including "living walls" and indoor gardens, with the fit-out using reclaimed tiles and recycled materials to support the firm's focus on sustainability.
