Martin was the SoA's Head of Communications from 2016 to 2024.
In March, we announced that we had exchanged contracts on the SoA’s new home in Bloomsbury with the aim of moving in early in 2019. We’re excited to announce that almost six months on, we have completed the purchase of 24 Bedford Row and the sale of our current offices in Drayton Gardens.

Our developers have started work on the six-storey building, with architects working on an exciting new space for member events and networking on the ground floor. We hope to have the staff team up and running there in March 2019 – and to be able to start welcoming you to the new space soon after.

We’ll keep you updated – with photographs of the work in progress and a few sneak previews of how our ideas for the new space are shaping up.
