Our Vision

Announced late in 2022, the East Havering Data Centre campus, Green energy infrastructure & Ecology Park project will deliver 1,024 local jobs, a new public green space, and new digital infrastructure to support the local and wider UK economy. 

The project, being brought forward by Digital Reef in collaboration with Havering Council, is set to become a leading centre for the development of green technology, across energy, waste, agriculture, and land management, supporting the advancement of local skills in the science and technology, sustainability, and data economy sectors.

The scheme is also set to increase access to green spaces for all and will include an extensive and fully accessible 113-hectare Ecology Park – equivalent to more than 174 football pitches - which we want to deliver together with the community using local insights to help inform our final designs with new footpath and cycling routes to support accessibility. 

Take a closer look at how the proposal will blend seamlessly into the natural landscape.

Benefits to the People of Havering

The plans for the Campus have advanced significantly and the team are excited to bring the updated proposals to the local community to gather input and collaborate on the scheme. The Digital Reef team would like to thank all of the close neighbours who attended the webinar or came along to the in-person drop-in sessions throughout May and shared thoughts, questions and concerns. The team appreciate the input on the scheme, to help advance plans and ensure that benefits are felt locally.

For those who could not make the sessions, please do get in touch via the form at the bottom of the page, or you can view the webinar slides here.
