Interserve clients from the Home Office, London Borough of Croydon, Defra and the London Borough of Ealing will join Interserve on stand B25 at the Public Property Summit at the Business Design Centre in London on 1-2 November to share best practice on driving value, delivering sustainability and improving services.

On day one (1 November) Tony Edwards, Head of General Property at the Home Office, presents at 11.50 about the benefits of introducing total facilities management across the department. Learn more from Interserve’s Sustainability Manager, Elaine Preston, at 1.30 about how Interserve’s award-winning sustainability framework, RENEWABLES, is generating savings for our clients and at 3.30 Aiden McManus, Director of Service Transformation and Support Services at the London Borough of Croydon, shares his knowledge and experience of the role of property in an integrated transformation programme.
