The Momentum AGM 2024 took place last week and we were very excited to be able to host it within a Momentum project.

The School Green Centre in Shinfield is a community building we worked on with AOC Architecture which has recently been shortlisted for a RIBA South Award 2024.

An overview of the past year's activities and achievements started the day, followed by a staff feedback session.

Then we took part in the AGM Challenge, created by two of our London Graduate Engineers, which required teams making a variety of unique structures from a limited supply of craft material.

 

It was also the inaugural ceremony for our Sustainability Awards, THE MOMSAs.      

Our London Office Manager Kelly Bagnall spoke to Mental Health at Work, a website curated by Mind, about why joining their Commitment and mental health in the workplace is important to us.

At Momentum, we aim to create a positive culture towards mental health in the workplace.
