In 2017 we announced plans to create a new hub in Treforest, north of Cardiff.

Building work on the new hub began in January 2019 and the 133,000 sq ft Treforest building is currently on track and due for completion in the last quarter of 2020.

We plan to move staff based in Merthyr Tydfil Ty Bethesda into Treforest between 2021 and 2023.
