Restoration of Salford Cathedral Continues
Restoration work continues at Salford Cathedral with decorating to the Chancel ceiling now underway. Delicate star detailing has been stencilled and gold leafing applied to stonework.
We have also been able to leave our mark, we have been honoured with our own stencilled star, a lasting memory of the time Simpson has spent helping to restore this amazing Cathedral.

Simpson completes Bath & Body Works for Next
Simpson have recently completed the reconfiguration and fit‑out of the existing Next store at the Bullring in Birmingham to introduce the new Bath & Body Works concept.
The works included new wall layouts, an upgraded sprinkler system, refreshed lighting and ceilings, and a fully branded shopfront built to the Bath & Body Works specification, complete with detailed tiling. New joinery and internal signage were also installed to bring the brand to life.
The store is now fully open, with even the iconic Bullring Bull dressed in Bath & Body Works attire to celebrate the launch. Another successful project delivered by Simpson.
Simpson celebrate successful Sainsbury's launch
On Thursday, 13th November, Simpson proudly marked the completion and grand opening of Sainsbury’s newest flagship supermarket at Wynyard, Billingham.
Simpson were appointed to complete the fit-out to the impressive 48,330 sq. ft. store which has been built to Sainsbury’s latest specification, setting a new benchmark for quality and sustainability. Featuring latest design, energy-efficient standards, and advanced operational features, this store represents the very best of Sainsbury’s retail experience.
Centre of Excellence takes home the win
Last night’s NFB Construction Awards of Excellence in Birmingham brought a fantastic moment of pride for Simpson. Two of our projects were shortlisted: Hull Maritime Museum—recognised in both the Remarkable Restoration and Renovation and Heritage and Conservation Project categories—and the Centre of Excellence, shortlisted for Excellence in Educational Building.
While Hull Maritime Museum narrowly missed out, we are thrilled to announce that the Centre of Excellence was named the winner of Excellence in Educational Building.
This project represents something truly special: a world‑class hub for heritage craft skills, supporting research, training, and the future of traditional craftsmanship. Being part of its journey has been a privilege.
Congratulations to everyone who helped bring this award‑winning project to life.
