We teamed up with local mixed media artist Megan Hatton with a Mindful Painting session organised by our Head of Landscape Rose Walker as one of our monthly socials.
Before we put paint to the canvas, the 2 hour session began with mixing colours to create a colour wheel, practicing shading and experimenting with texture using various different tools enabling us to forget our worries and focus on the present moment!
Megan gave us tips on how to get different textures which gave us inspiration to start on our canvas’. It was interesting to see how different everyone’s painting became.
Everyone really enjoyed taking their time painting, many not having picked up a brush since their school days. Being creative is sometimes overlooked when you lead a busy lifestyle and was a welcome change.

We had the privilege of hosting Steve Brown from Dragonfly Habitat Bank in our office. Our Consultant Ecologist, Lloyd Wyatt shares his experience from the CPD session.
We recognise the importance of International Women's Day on 8th March, as we achieve an equal split between male and female members in both our senior and middle management, as well as across the wider company.
