The PROPS – the Midlands Property Awards to be unveiled for the first time at a black tie gala event at The Grand Hotel in Birmingham, is a chance for the industry to shout from the rooftops about the huge success of the regional property market, according to one of the West Midlands’ leading experts.
James Mattin, managing director agency at Bond Wolfe, said: “The PROPS has been run by Variety, the children’s charity, since 1992, and we at Bond Wolfe are delighted to be one of the founding sponsors for the Midlands event.”
The awards will be presented by property developer and TV presenter of “A Place in the Sun” Jonnie Irwin at the event on Thursday 28 April from 6.30pm.
The categories to be presented for the first time in the Midlands will include Residential (sponsored by Keepmoat Homes), Industrial Logistics (Emmaus Consulting), Office Deal of the Year (Savills), Environmental, Social & Governance (Bond Wolfe), Investment Deal (Godwin Group), Rising Star (Rainier Developments), and Regeneration Project (Prosperity Developments).
Mr Mattin said: “Since 1992, The PROPS have raised over £10.5 million, enabling Variety to provide 2,100 custom-built wheelchairs and other essential items to children and young people throughout the UK.
“The onus is now on the Midlands property industry to show how deep our pockets are and help boost the wonderful work done by Variety.”
Variety, the Children’s Charity, exists to provide practical, tangible help to children and young people aged 18 and under. In the UK, there are more than 1.3 million disabled children and young people, and an estimated nearly four million children living in poverty.
Variety provides grants for specialist disability equipment and wheelchairs that are not available through statutory services, adapted, accessible transport for SEND schools and other non-profit organisations through the Sunshine Coaches programme, and memorable day trips through its Great Days Out programme.
