JAF
An MBE and SBE certified, community impact focused consulting firm working at the intersection of strategy, design, and development in the built environment.
βDesign can inspire. Development can transform. Engagement can unify. But without a strategy rooted in impact to align them, even the most inspiring, transformative, and inclusive projects fall short of building lasting legacy. At JAF we are impact strategists and community builders.β
