n entrepreneur has launched a club to help people get the most out of


their money – while improving the lives of everybody in the greater Bristol area. Derrick Royall, who has worked


in financial services for more than 30 years, has set up the Royall Wealth Club to help people make money from investing in local firms and projects. Derrick, who has worked with a


number of leading accountancy and wealth management firms, said giving something back makes us happier. Derrick said: “Ultimately we all


want to be happy, though we may have a different take on what it involves. “For me, research and


experience has taught me that the more we can share, the happier we will be. On the other hand, holding onto all our worldly possessions can lead to dissatisfaction and ultimately an empty life.” But he warns it is important to


take care of your own finances first before trying to help others. Derrick, who also runs Royall

Artisan quarter is reclaimed


Urban regeneration specialists Helm Construction have been brought in to transform Walcot Yard in Bath’s artisan quarter. The buildings have been empty


for seven years since their last use by a building materials reclamation business and before that the Walcot Reclamation business. Helm Construction will build


eight three-bedroom townhouses, delivering a valuable city centre plot back to the community. Chief Executive Gary Sheppard


said: “Bath’s artisan area has been a popular destination for years, but the Yard had declined to the point where the buildings were no longer safe or economically sustainable. Given the recent headlines about the excessive levels of student housing creeping in to city’s commercial areas, it is good to report that we will be building homes in Bath.”
