JAF

An MBE and SBE certified, community impact focused consulting firm working at the intersection of strategy, design, and development in the built environment.

β€œDesign 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.”
