Knight Kavanagh & Page (KKP) is delighted to see the progress being made on development of the new Midlands Sports Centre.  In 2005, the Company, working in tandem with Drivers Jonas, supported the business planning, Section 77 planning and wider consultation processes for the facility and secured external funding support from the Community Investment Fund for the Coventry Sports Foundation.

Commenting on development of the centre, Peter Millward, Principal Consultant said, "The extensive consultation carried out confirmed support for the proposals from all parts of the local community and underpinned the detailed business plan for the project.  To see these plans start to become a reality is pleasing from both a personal and professional point of view and reflects well on the wide range of people driving the project forward, most significantly Coventry Sports Foundation and Westwood Community College."
