A COMPANY providing advice on town planning matters has opened a new office in Huddersfield.

Manchester-based Higham & Co has set up its first Yorkshire office at the Heritage Exchange Centre in Oakes to meet the needs of a growing client list across West Yorkshire.

The new office will be managed by Andy Keeling, who joined the firm from Kirklees Council two years ago.

Higham & Co managing director Peter Higham said: “With our resources and Andy’s local knowledge, I have no doubt that the new office will be well-received by existing clients and new clients.”
