C2S Supporting the Construction & Property Sector

At C2S, we partner with leading construction and property experts to bring you the most insightful conversations across the South West and Worcestershire. We are committed to championing excellence and best practices, working together to support the growth and success of the construction and property sector.

Regular Events for the Construction & Property Community

We host regular events tailored for professionals in the construction and property sector, providing you with the latest updates, industry insights, and opportunities to connect.

In-Person Bi-Monthly Construction & Property Catch-Up

In collaboration with our Official Partners, McLoughlin Planning, C2S hosts a bi-monthly catch-up designed for those in the construction and property sectors. Whether you’re a builder, developer, architect, contractor, lawyer, or simply have an interest in this industry, join us for a relaxed, informal drink after work. Reconnect with like-minded professionals and expand your network in a casual setting.

These catch-ups provide the perfect opportunity to meet new people, discuss industry trends, and unwind after a busy day. With 50 to 70 attendees regularly, you will find a vibrant community eager to share ideas and experiences. Enjoy a glass of wine, beer, or a soft drink on your way home, and stay connected to the pulse of the sector.

Our events alternate between the charming Hotel Du Vin in Cheltenham and the lively Gloucester Brewery at Gloucester Docks. It is a fantastic opportunity to network and catch up—everyone is welcome!

Open to Members and Non-Members

These events are open to both members and non-members, offering a platform to network, discuss, and debate the latest challenges facing the property and construction sectors.

Quarterly Property & Construction Focus

Each quarter, we invite industry experts to discuss topics of interest relevant to the sector. These sessions are followed by opportunities to exchange views, learn from peers, and collaborate on addressing today’s issues and challenges. We are committed to driving positive change and making a real difference in the industry.

We are proud to collaborate with esteemed organisations such as McLoughlin Planning, Cullimores, KW Bell, Barnwood Construction, Clarkson Evans, Gloucester & Cheltenham Councils, Bruton Knowles, Evans Jones, Ridge & Partners, Abbey Business Interiors, RRA Architects, University of Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire College, Premier Forest, Markey Group, Gloucestershire County Council, and many more.
