On behalf of the Directors of DCL Consulting Engineers Ltd, we are pleased to announce that Freddie Merriden has been promoted to Project Engineer.

This promotion recognises Freddie’s exemplary performance in leading complex design work and his strong client and contractor-facing presentations, both of which have been a great credit to not only him but the whole DCL Consulting team.

Congratulations Freddie on this well-deserved achievement. 

We all wish him continued success in his new role and now only one step away from Chartership!

Drainage shouldn't just be a hidden pipe in the ground. This month, our engineering team attended the Building with Nature and SuDS seminar hosted by FORMA. Learning from Cristina Refolo and Taffeta Gray (Refolo Landscape Architects) reinforced a key philosophy: when nature is at the heart of design, technical requirements become vibrant public spaces. By integrating nature-based SuDS strategies, we're helping our clients build projects that are as sustainable as they are functional. Thanks to Cristina for the masterclass—we’re ready to put these insights into practice!
