LUC Landscape Planning and Management teams expand
LUC’s Landscape Planning and Landscape Management teams have expanded this month. We’re excited to have David Hope, Gemma Tooze and Lizzie Jewitt join us.
We welcome David to LUC as Principal Landscape Planner in our London office. Before LUC, David worked as a Senior Landscape Planner focussing mainly on residential schemes. He also has experience as a field archaeologist and has a particular interest in landscape and heritage. David looks forward to working on strategic landscape planning projects.
Gemma joins our London office as a Consultant Landscape Manager. Gemma grew up on a farm in Devon and has a first-class BSc in Geography. She has previously worked with the Environment Agency. Gemma is excited to work with and learn from our talented team and contribute to a wide range of projects.
Lizzie Jewitt has started at our Bristol office as a Landscape Researcher. She has a BSc in Environmental Science from the University of Sheffield and experience in hydraulic modelling and flood risk planning.
Finally, we’re happy to welcome Laura Cargill back to our Edinburgh office following maternity leave. Laura is busy working on the updated masterplan for Springfield Homes and it is great to have her back.
