It is with great sadness that we share the news th

It is with great sadness that we share the news that Karen Benson, a much-loved and long-standing member of the Project Four family, passed away recently after a short illness.

For over 10 years, Karen was central to this business; trusted, respected, and relied upon by colleagues and clients alike. She will be deeply missed by everyone who had the privilege of working alongside her.

Our thoughts are with her family, Nathan, Alfie and Julie, and with everyone who knew her.

A celebration of Karen's life will be held on Thursday 23rd July 2026 at 3.30pm, Landican Cemetery, Arrowe Park Rd, Woodchurch, Birkenhead, Wirral CH49 5LW, followed by drinks from 4.30pm at the Green Lodge Hotel, 2 Stanley Rd, Hoylake, Wirral CH47 1HW.

Karen's wishes: no black, smart casual, and no long faces. No flowers, but donations in her memory to St John's Hospice, Clatterbridge, who cared for Karen and her family so well over these last few weeks: https://lnkd.in/e6fXespW

Thank you for everything Karen, you will always be the heart of P4, no matter where you are💚

🚀🚀GATEWAY 2 APPROVAL SECURED🚀🚀

We are so pleased to announce that we have helped McLaren Property | Living | Regeneration secure a Gateway 2 Approval for their scheme at Wellington Square.

The 46 storey scheme consisting of 464 residential apartments above ground floor, will be the newest addition to the Leeds skyline.

Project Four had multiple roles in this project, taking on BRPD, CDM PD and BSA Client Advisor. Big shoutout to Karen C. Cornejo Steven Sidaway Mark Gray for their work in getting this over the line.

As Karen so aptly put, “Credit goes to the entire Wellington S. project team whose expertise and commitment helped navigate a demanding approval process...it reflects the strength of the collaboration, high-quality assurance, expertise, commitment, and diligence demonstrated by all disciplines involved”.

Take a look to learn more about the project.

Take a look at who’s doing what and join us in wishing them both many happy returns!

As June nears a close, we are here with the next episode in our Life at Project Four series.

For this month, we’ve sat down with Senior Building Safety Consultant Harry Chapman-Eamer, who is nearing his one year anniversary with us.

Everyone who meets Harry comments on his approachability, genuineness, and passion for his role, and he is a true asset to the Project Four team in how he approaches his day-to-day.

A part of the National Team, Harry is always darting here, there, and everywhere on site visits, client meetings, and team days, but he always finds the time to socialise with his family and dog Ovie.

Find out more about Harry here and why he continues to choose Project Four.

Busy workshop mornings in the P4 boardroom, otherw

Busy workshop mornings in the P4 boardroom, otherwise (un)officially known as the P4 'war room'.

Workshop 1️⃣ - Site Safety & Audit regroup with the Liverpool PCS team
Workshop 2️⃣ - Marketing workshops with service leads

A space for collaborative thinking, brain dumping, and team get togethers, the boardroom is the perfect place for preparing and banging heads for the week ahead.

During our office refurb, one thing the team asked for was a dedicated meeting space, free from credited bookings and limited availability, somewhere they could greet clients and show off the P4 charm.

Now the team across the country can meet, discuss, and plan to ensure the quality we're known for is retained.

More on the office refurb incoming...🫡

How are we already halfway through the year? 🤯

No momentum is being lost though, as we celebrate this month’s work anniversaries:

Nuno Lucas - 1️⃣ year
Alex Teare - 2️⃣ years
Connor McIlroy -8️⃣ years

A mix of expertise, but together a recipe for success (including Nuno’s showstopping sourdough).

We spoke to the guys to see what their highlights of the past 365 have been, and what they look forward to in the next.

Take a look now!😊

Today's the day Alan Robson. sets off with OPTIMUS

Today's the day Alan Robson. sets off with OPTIMUS FACILITIES to take on the Three Peaks Challenge, in aid of Alder Hey Children's Charity.

As everyone knows by now, Alder Hey is a charity we, and Optimus, have supported for a number of years due to personal connections in the team. The funds raised will go directly to helping families and their loved ones navigating through their time at Alder Hey, whether it be through research, appointments, or stays on the wards.

The team have smashed their £3000 target, but the fundraising doesn't stop there. We all need to keep pushing, as they will need to do over the next 24 hours.

Want to donate? You can do so here: https://lnkd.in/eNfXk7NY

Good luck team, we're rooting for you!👊🏼💚

A month of varying weather states, bank holidays, events, and BIRTHDAYS!

We've had 4 of the team celebrate their birthday this month, with Nat, Rikky, Steve, and Nuno blowing out the candle on another year.

From trips away, to meals and tending the garden, take a look at what they got up to.

Because at P4, we believe birthdays are more than 'just another day'🥳🎂🎈

As we return to work after a scorching bank holida

As we return to work after a scorching bank holiday weekend, we're back with the next hot topic - our Life at P4 series🔥🔥

This month we introduce you to Shweta Waikar, our Associate Architect, BSA Principal Designer.

You don't hear Shweta without hearing about her grace, kindness, and chef skills that all the team appreciate and love about working with her day-to-day.

Whether it's working on projects of varying size and stature, cooking up a storm for London's monthly harvest table, or simply just being Shweta, we are all so grateful she continues to choose P4, especially after hitting her 2 year anniversary this month.

We spoke to Shweta to find out about her "Life at P4" and beyond.

Take a look now...

The most common cause of fatal injuries for 2024/2

The most common cause of fatal injuries for 2024/25, was falls from height, at a staggering 53%. Working at height may be part of the job, but falls certainly shouldn't be.

That's why at Project Four we have always shown strong support for No Falls Week, a week dedicated to education, awareness, and promotion, of how unsafe work environments can impact you for life.

Don't be complacent, it is everyone's responsibility from the ground up to keep things safe.

Because everyone deserves to return home safe from a day's work.

Wow, yesterday was incredible. Thank you to everyone who joined us at both of our exclusive fringe events at this year's UKREiiF.

Running these events alongside the main conference exhibition as independent companies is key to further developing the conversations catalysed by the main UKREiiF event.

With our PAP and Safety Case, and joint drinks event attracting industry professionals from across the UK, we feel it was a hugely successful day.

We have so much to share with you, but for now, take a look at our day-in-the-life, which offers you a snapshot of what we got up to...
