Developers' Club Exclusive Event: Land, Contracts & People

When: Wednesday 8th July, 2026 | 7:30am

Where: JobServe Community Stadium, United Way, Colchester, CO4 5UP

Prettys is delighted to invite you to our next Developers’ Club live event.

Our Developers’ Club brings together professionals from across the property and construction sector – including developers, contractors, consultants, funders, investors and advisors – for practical, commercially focused updates on the issues shaping the industry.

This event will cover three key areas impacting development projects from acquisition through to delivery and beyond:

The Contractual Control Register: what developers need to know
Rebecca Cleal, Head of Commercial Property, will explore the forthcoming requirement to register land control agreements at the Land Registry, including options, pre-emption and promotion agreements. We will cover what’s in scope, when registration will be required, and what information will become public – with the latest position ahead of implementation.

JCT contracts – key amendments and practical insights
Peter Blake and Chris Harrall will provide a clear overview of JCT contracts, focusing on amendments and key risk areas developers, contractors and consultants should be aware of in current projects.

Employment Rights Act – what it means for your business
Vanessa Bell will outline upcoming changes and the practical implications for those operating in the development and construction sector, particularly around workforce management and risk.

Whether you are acquiring land, delivering projects or managing portfolios, this session will provide a practical and valuable update on the legal and commercial issues to watch.

This event is for members of the Prettys' Developers' Club.
