Planning consent secured for One Eden, a world-class destination for modern occupiers 🌿🏙️ We're excited to announce that planning consent for a comprehensive refurbishment of the landmark building previously known as 33 Canada Square, has been secured and will be delivered on a pre-let basis. Located at the epicentre of Canary Wharf adjacent to Eden Dock, and connected to Jubilee and Canada Square parks, One Eden will provide more than 545,000 sq ft of high-quality workspace in addition to retail amenities and an option for a signature rooftop restaurant. A striking internal atrium creates a dramatic centrepiece that will flood the building with natural light. Originally designed by globally renowned architects Foster+Partners the building is being reimagined by tp bennett, delivering a world-class destination for modern occupiers, setting a new benchmark for sustainable development, retaining 97% of the existing sub and super structure to preserve more than 62,000 tonnes of concrete.

Proud to share some exciting news from CWG📚 We've relaunched our further education grants, totalling £250,000, in partnership with the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. Successful applicants will receive grants between £2,800 and £5,900, depending on the course, supporting LBTH residents who face financial barriers to pursuing further or higher education, postgraduate study, or professional and vocational training. Since 1990, the Tower Hamlets and Canary Wharf Further Education Trust has helped more than 4,500 students unlock their potential and access the qualifications they need to thrive. Investing in education is one of the most powerful ways we can support the communities around us, and the grants are exactly what that looks like in practice. When the public and private sectors work together towards a shared goal, the results speak for themselves. For us, this isn't just about building a world-class destination, it's about creating lasting, positive change for the people who live and work here, now and in the future.

Opinions about the outlook for real estate were as variable as the weather at MIPIM this year. I left on Thursday afternoon as the sun was shining with a renewed sense of optimism about the potential for 2026 and beyond. Geopolitical uncertainty remains a primary consideration, but overall I was impressed by the sustained resilience of business confidence as occupiers and investors are actively developing growth strategies, acknowledging the longer term implications of decisions made today. Thank you to Estates Gazette for sharing my views on intelligent refurbishment and its role in shaping London offices' next phase. Collaborating with occupiers and investors in a long-term, custodial way is in our DNA. It sets Canary Wharf apart and gives me optimism for the future. I would also point you to an insightful story written by Paul Norman at CoStar reviewing Canary Wharf's evolution - a timely piece that captures how the Wharf has evolved from a business focussed district to a dynamic mixed-use destination welcoming over 76m visitors in 2025.

It's #FoodWasteActionWeek 🍎 and what better way to draw attention to rescuing surplus food than following a day in the life of CWG apprentice and The Felix Project volunteer, Sameur R. At The Felix Project’s Poplar depot, Sameur gets hands-on with one of London’s most vital missions: rescuing surplus food and getting it to the people who need it most. Along the way, he hears from Supply Manager Paul about the scale of the challenge. In London, 4.6 million tonnes of edible surplus food is wasted every year, and less than 1% of it is currently being rescued. The Felix Project is working to change that, rescuing surplus food and redistributing it to communities across the capital. For Sameur, volunteering is about more than packing crates, it’s about impact. You may have already spotted him in our Where Ambition Lives brand campaign across London, representing a district that doesn't just talk about community engagement - we get hands-on with it. From tackling food poverty to supporting local education, our people make the difference. 💚 Interested in volunteering with The Felix Project?
