    We delivered a £2.2m electrical contract as part of Wycombe District Council’s £150m Handy Cross development.

    The 10,750 sq m Wycombe sports centre includes a 50m competition swimming pool, sub-aqua dive pit, multi-purpose sports hall, indoor bowls, dance studio, 150-station fitness suite, climbing wall, squash courts and café area.
