Trainee architect joins homes firm

Trainee architect Dan Wedekind has joined the team at Bourne-based Larkfleet Homes to help meet the company’s plans to increase the number of homes it is building.

His appointment as an architectural assistant is part of Larkfleet’s commitment to encourage the next generation of construction professionals.

Mr Wedekind, of Huntingdon, took his A Levels at Hinchingbrooke School before going to the University of Lincoln where he gained an honours degree in architecture.

He is now working with Larkfleet to develop new housing. The experience will enable him to return to university to complete a master’s degree and become a fully qualified architect.

Part of his role involves attending open evenings at Greater Peterborough University Technical College to get current and prospective students interested in the construction industry.
