Our story
Sewell Advisory was formed in 2025 bringing together the established estates consultancies of Shared Agenda and Community Ventures and their 25 combined years of history of working in partnership with public sector organisations. The motivation behind this collaboration is to strengthen the reach and positive impact of our combined team’s knowledge and expertise. We have a diverse team of over 60 skilled professionals brimming with energy and ready to get stuck in.
Whether you want a one-off task such as a business case, or you want us to fully project manage a scheme from inception to completion, our experts become an extension to your team, allowing you to concentrate on the bigger picture.
The healthcare, education and commercial sectors are where we excel, with experienced consultants who understand the industry and can navigate you through the complex regulatory, funding and compliance landscapes.
We have offices across the North and Midlands, but we work nationwide with organisations the length and breadth of the country. Our backgrounds vary, but the one thing that’s consistent is our passion for what we do. We’re invested in your project, and we want to help you to succeed.
Part of the Sewell Group
We’ve been the private sector partner in public private partnerships across the country, including the NHS’s Local Improvement Finance Trust (LIFT) programme and the national Building Schools for the Future (BSF). We’ve worked on high profile estates projects, including:
– Developing £400m of schools in Hull under the BSF programme
– Managing a £57.5m primary care transformation programme
– Creating the business case for a £20m health and wellbeing centre
– Being a key part of the construction of the £700m Royal Liverpool Hospital
We manage an estate portfolio of around 150 properties, with a combined value of over £250 million.
"The team has excellent existing relationships at all levels across the health & care landscape, which means they’re ideally placed to help us improve outcomes for patients."
Many of our team come from public sector backgrounds, with over 65 years experience within the senior team alone.

Where culture comes first
As part of the Sewell Group, we’re a co-owned business and one of the Sunday Times Best Places to Work, as well as being a Queen’s Award for Enterprise winner, so it’s clear our people matter to us.
Our team has grown in size recently, giving us the strength and depth to work across schemes of all shapes and sizes, but we make sure we keep our friendly, approachable character.
LEAVING A LEGACY
Wherever we’re working across the country, we try to give something back to local communities. Creating a sense of place and giving people pride in where they live, work and play is important to us.
As a business, we follow the Sewell compass, which drives us towards maintaining an ethical and sustainable business through our focus areas of people, places, planet, and performance.
We’re part of something bigger
Sewell Group is a diverse group of businesses united by our culture. We deliver estates consultancy and strategic direction, construction projects, facilities management, investment projects and data intelligence to a broad range of clients across the North of England and the Midlands.
