Our resident architect in BNI Olympus is none other than Nick Hayes of Hayes Architects Ltd, formerly a partner with Cassidy & Ashton. Nick specialises in a range of projects from small domestic work, through extensions, new build and into commercial work. He’s able to draw on many years experience in the business. Schools are one area he loves to get involved in and he received an introduction to a fantastic referral from the group’s commercial photographer.

Martin Toole of Inspired Images had no hesitation in introducing Nick when he was speaking with Broad Oak Primary School about their site and future developments. Martin’s photography skills and experience were put to good use providing images for the feasibility study. Nick wrote “the quality of those images enabled a professional looking bid which helped in securing the project”. He went on “this work could potentially lead to a 14 year involvement with the school”, probably making it one of the longest running referrals we’ve seen.

“This project would not have happened without Martin’s focus and awareness in understanding the potential” commented Nick.

He concluded his testimonial, reminding us all why we get involved with BNI, “this referral is one in a million and I am so pleased that you included me in your thinking”.
