In December 2022, The Praxis Partnership relocated from ‘Woodhurst’, an Edwardian property we had occupied for exactly ten years, in Redditch, Worcestershire, 6 miles down the road, to temporary premises, in Bleachfield Street, in Alcester, just over the county border, in Warwickshire.
In August 2023, we relocated to a more permanent address, in Minerva Mill Innovation Centre, a beautiful Grade 2 listed property, in Station Road, Alcester, which also became the primary and registered offices of the company.
This process represented something of a ‘Back To My Root’ move for Managing Director, Alan Young, who originally attended Alcester Grammar School, just across the road from Minerva Mill. Alan was also involved with family firm; Eric N Baylis & Co. Baylis & Co formerly owned both Centurian Works, in Bleachfield Street (now demolished to make way for Flax Close) and Minerva Mill, itself, so returning to the Mill, after some thirty years felt very much like ‘coming home’.
The company continues to service its extensive client base in Telford and Birmingham and the surrounding areas, and, at just 6 miles from Woodhurst, our Redditch clients remain just a stone’s throw away. We now look forward, also, to getting to know many new businesses in Alcester, and Warwickshire, as a whole.
