Site manager Ashley Cresswell was recently named a Quality Award winner at the NHBC Pride in the Job Awards 2023 for his sterling work and dedication to quality house building.
While on site Mr Miliband also took the opportunity to tour a number of new build homes, learned about construction techniques and discussed decarbonisation of the housing industry.
A “testament to modern housebuilding”
Shadow Secretary of State for energy and net zero, the Rt Hon Edward Miliband MP said: “I was delighted to meet with Ashley at Skylarks Grange and see the product of his and his colleagues’ hard work. The high-quality homes I visited on the site are a testament to modern house building and it’s fantastic the great work of the new build sector is recognised and celebrated through NHBC’s Pride in the Job Awards.”
Toby Hollis, regional director for the North East at NHBC commented: “It was a pleasure to welcome Mr Miliband to Skylarks Grange; it’s a strong example of top-quality house building led by an exceptional site manager. For more than 40 years NHBC’s Pride in the Job Awards have championed the highest standards of house building in the UK and Ashley is very worthy recipient.
“The homes at Skylarks Grange will be enjoyed by their residents for years to come and we are pleased Mr Miliband took the time to meet with us to learn about the great work being undertaken in the new build industry.”
