Clean Air Day is today, 18 June, led by Global Action Plan as the UK’s largest air pollution campaign. Its message is clear: cleaner air requires collective action from communities, businesses, schools, health providers, local authorities and the built environment sector.

For construction and property clients, air quality is not just an environmental issue. It is a project delivery consideration.

Healthier buildings and communities depend on early decisions around ventilation, M&E design, site logistics, transport access, material specification, energy strategy and long-term building performance.

Whether delivering healthcare, education, residential, commercial or public-sector projects, BAQUS helps clients consider these priorities from the outset: balancing cost, compliance, sustainability and user wellbeing.

Clean air should be part of how we define project success.

Progress continues at Les Ozouets, with several key areas advancing across the site.

Within the main building, fire protection boarding is progressing across the ground, first and second floors, while parapet insulation has now commenced. SFS installation to the ground, first and second floors is complete, with external boarding and sealing ongoing. Windows have been installed to level 0 on the north elevation, glazing to the north elevation is complete, and the final roof coating to level 3 is now complete, with works commencing on level 2.

Further progress includes dwarf wall boarding to the second floor, fire stopping sample walls, initial cladding support installation, and the first areas of internal wall set-out.

Across the wider site, scaffolding and roof purlin works are progressing to the Construction Building, while external works continue on site boundaries, retaining walls, roadway preparation and the motorcycle bay.

BAQUS is pleased to continue supporting the delivery of this important project through proactive cost and project management input.

BAQUS recently undertook a Schedule of Condition covering adjacent buildings, roads, footpaths and street furniture ahead of a major office extension and fit-out project in central London.

For contractors and clients, this early-stage record provides valuable clarity before works begin, helping to manage risk, protect neighbouring assets and support smooth project delivery.

BAQUS is proud to celebrate the successful completion of the new 50-seat MediCinema facility at Manchester Royal Infirmary.

This is a truly special healthcare project, designed to bring the magic of cinema directly to children in hospital, giving young patients and their families a welcome escape, comfort and moments of joy during challenging times.

The completion of this dedicated space reflects what can be achieved when technical expertise, collaboration and purpose-driven delivery come together. Every detail has been carefully considered to create an environment that is both functional and uplifting for patients, families and staff.

A huge thank you to everyone involved in bringing this vision to life, including Equans and MarconConstruction. Your commitment, care and collaboration have helped deliver a facility that will have a lasting positive impact within the hospital community.

This milestone is a powerful reminder that healthcare construction is not only about buildings, but about creating spaces that support wellbeing, dignity and moments of normality when they matter most.

This month, the London Festival of Architecture returns with the theme of “Belonging”, bringing more than 400 events across the capital and encouraging the built environment sector to ask a vital question: who are our buildings and spaces designed for?

Inclusive, sustainable and successful builds depend on early collaboration between clients, consultants, designers, contractors and communities. When project teams consider access, heritage, long-term use, safety, cost certainty and environmental performance from the outset, buildings are more likely to serve the people and communities they are created for.

Today is World Environment Day, and in the construction and property sector, it's a moment that deserves more than a pause for reflection.

The built environment accounts for around 40% of global carbon emissions. That's a number our industry cannot ignore, and one that places a genuine responsibility on every consultant, contractor, and client involved in shaping the places we live, work, and receive care in.

At BAQUS, sustainability isn't a box to tick on a project checklist. It sits at the heart of how we advise our clients, from early-stage cost planning that accounts for whole-life value, to procurement decisions that consider environmental impact alongside programme and budget. We know the industry still has a long way to go. But every project is an opportunity to make better decisions, and we take that seriously.

Happy World Environment Day. Let's keep building better.

The latest update from Les Ozouets Campus shows a project that is firmly in its stride. One key milestone worth calling out this week is the completion of lightning protection on the PAC Building, with certification now issued.

Sign-off and certification on a system like that is a meaningful step in the journey toward a building being ready for occupation.

On the main building, windows are now being installed across levels 1 and 2 on the North Elevation, with reveals in place from ground to level 2. External boarding and sealing is ongoing across all floors, the final roof coating continues at level 3, and fire stopping sample walls are being erected. Concrete plinths for plant equipment are in, and the parapet frame installation at level 3 continues.

In the Construction Building, the level 1 mezzanine deck is complete with roof level works ongoing, concrete pours are progressing to dwarf walls and the first section of level 1, and rebar installation is advancing across the remainder of the floor plate. Sika waterproofing continues at lower level perimeter.

Externally, retaining walls to both the east and west sides of the Construction Building are being prepared for shuttering and pour, with sprinkler sub-base and roadway works continuing across the site.

Another solid week at a project that is building real momentum toward completion. BAQUS continues in its role as NEC Supervisor for the State of Guernsey.

A robust golden thread (the single source of safety and design information) is essential for compliance, auditability and long-term asset value. Clear records protect people, projects and performance.
