Official opening of staff Wellbeing Garden at St Richard’s Hospital A therapeutic and relaxing ’Wellbeing Garden’ for colleagues at St Richard’s hospital was officially opened and presented to staff on 5 November

by Dame Marianne Griffiths, Chief Executive.

The garden, worth over £200,000, was gifted to colleagues as a thank you for their hard work during the pandemic by Chichester-based award-winning landscape and garden design studio, Andy Stedman Design.

Guests at the event included the team at Andy Stedman Design, local contractors and suppliers, and actor and writer Imogen Stubbs, a local advocate for the beauty and conservation of the Sussex area and the effects of overdevelopment and pollution.

“This is a project very close to my heart,” explains Andy Stedman. “I was born at St Richard’s Hospital and visited A&E many times throughout my childhood following various rugby and skateboarding injuries. However, it wasn’t until 2019, when my wife and I found ourselves in the neonatal unit here with our daughter who was born eight weeks early, when we saw first-hand how hard all the staff worked and how caring they were,” he added.

“When we heard the garden needed transforming my staff took it on and within 48 hours had reached out to our network of suppliers, contractors and partners in our showroom to get involved for free. We all know the hospital does so much for thousands of local people and we had costed this project up very early on, which came to more than £200,000. We then managed the concept design all the way through to how it has developed today.”

Dame Marianne Griffiths marked the opening by commending colleagues at the Trust for their hard work and Andy Stedman and his team for their kindness and generosity. “The pandemic has been really tough for our communities and the patients we serve, but also for our staff,

who have continued to go above and beyond throughout these extraordinary times to make sure patients receive the best care possible.

Giving this wonderful wellbeing garden to them feels all the more poignant as we stand here today,” she said.

“Green spaces really have the power to de-stress people and it’s so positive for our staff to have access to this. We are truly humbled by everyone’s generosity. We’re so grateful and it will make such a difference to our staff” she added.

Steve Crump, Director of Charites for Love Your Hospital said: “During the pandemic, the Charity surveyed staff to understand how best we could support them through such a challenging time, and one consistent request was dedicated outside spaces. To see this garden project realised to such a high standard is truly fantastic and invaluable as a place for staff to recharge and relax in.

“Being able to utilise funds kindly donated to our Hospital Heroes Covid-19 Appeal to provide canopies to ensure the garden can be enjoyed all-year-round, really is the icing on the cake. A huge thank you to Andy Stedman Design and all the contractors and suppliers involved who came to make this wonderful green space a reality.”

Adur Council hopes to further protect two historic conservation areas The historic wooden toll bridge in Shoreham could be given even greater protection under conservation plans being drawn up

by Adur District Council.

The Grade II listed crossing, which was built in 1781, provides extensive views over the Adur estuary and was a focal point for the community during the Shoreham Airshow crash in 2015.

The Council is looking to add the bridge to the existing Old Shoreham Conservation Area as part of a regular review of the protections.

This would mean there would be tighter planning controls and other restrictions for anyone looking to make changes to the structure or its surrounding area.

Expert teams are also assessing the zone around Kingston Buci, also referred to as Kingston by Sea, which has settlements dating back to the Bronze Age and is home to the 11th Century St Julian’s Church, one of the oldest churches in Sussex.

A consultation is now running until 20th January 2022 to give residents a chance to have their say on a number of elements of both the Old Shoreham and Kingston Buci Conservation areas.

Cllr Emma Evans, Adur District Council’s Executive Member for the Environment, said: “The aims of conservation areas are to preserve historic buildings, to maintain and enhance the historic character of the area and to restrict development that is not in keeping with the character.

“Kingston Buci and Old Shoreham are beautiful areas and we want to protect them as much as we can. The Old Shoreham Toll Bridge is an iconic landmark in the area and

Old Shoreham Toll Bridge we strongly believe it should be included in the conservation area. The public can have their say during the consultation period that runs up until the end of January.”

A Conservation Area Character Appraisal describes the historical context of the area, describes character and its setting and makes recommendations for future management.

This includes boundary changes, tighter planning controls, improvements to public spaces between buildings and raising awareness of the area and guidance for any new developments.

The Kingston Buci conservation area boundary is centred on the historic manor, St Julian’s Church and rectory. Also included within the conservation area is the 19th century croquet and lawn tennis club east of Kingston Lane.

The Council is suggesting revising the boundary by removing land south west of Shoreham College and immediately north of the railway line, which is now used as a transmitter station. It is also proposed to remove some modern housing along Rectory Road and at Spinnals Grove east of Kingston Lane.

Trust Army surgeon, who was deployed to Kabul to help with the evacuation mission, was among those laying wreaths at the Remembrance Sunday service in Brighton Lt Col Benjamin Caesar, Consultant Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgeon at University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust and 16 Medical Regiment, Royal Army Medical Corps, was among those laying wreaths for the Remembrance Sunday service at the War Memorial in Brighton.

Lt Col Caesar recently returned from deployment to Afghanistan, where he worked in a hospital set up for injured personnel and Afghans going through the evacuation process at Kabul airport.

He also used his experience as a new father to settle a baby passed over a wall to troops in Kabul.

Speaking about of the Remembrance service, he said: “It’s hard to put into words what the wreath laying meant to me. I thought about colleagues in Afghanistan, who sadly lost their lives. I thought about all the veterans that were sent home wounded and physically, emotionally and psychologically scarred.

“I also thought about the other front line: the partners and families that are left behind and make huge sacrifices. Every year, we remember and every year it’s hard, poignant and important to do so.”

Lt Col Caesar joined the Trust in 2015, and in 2016, founded Brighton’s Chavasse Clinic, one of only two specialist musculoskeletal clinics in the UK for service personnel and veterans. He said: “When patients come to see me in these clinics, they want to see someone who understands what they’ve been through and the difficulties that they face.

The clinic works closely in conjunction with the

Lt Col Benjamin Caesar from UK Armed Forces embedded media team Afghanistan 2021

veteran mental health services (TILS) and the Sussex Armed Forces Network. Lt Col Caesar added: “It was during these clinics that I realised more than 40% of my patients had a diagnosis of PTSD. It prompted me to learn about PTSD, and see if we need to make any changes to how we manage their treatment.

“My work with the Veteran community is incredibly rewarding on a personal level as I feel it is an opportunity to show those who have sacrificed physically, psychologically or both, that the current serving members of the Armed Forces remember and care about their wellbeing.”

As a result of his work with patients with PTSD, Lt Col Caesar has also become a strong advocate for spotting signs of burnout within the healthcare workforce. He has recently returned from speaking at international symposiums about the issue. “This is an ongoing issue, which the pandemic has only exacerbated. I’m interested in raising awareness about this issue; talking about why burnout affects us and helping people find ways to manage it.”

Shoreham’s under 16’s win against Eastbourne

Eastbourne Sunday 21st of November 2021 Shoreham Under 16’s Shoreham’s under 16’s had to dig deep to overcome a determined Eastbourne.

Shoreham dominated both possession and territory in the first half and their large travelling support felt disappointed not to have been further ahead than the half time score of 22-7.

Eastbourne rallied in the second half and with the combination of errors from Shoreham and having a player sent to the sin bin put themselves under considerable pressure. It was only with strong work from the forwards, most notably debutant Toby Spendley, that they gradually wrestled control of the game.

Shoreham’s backline who were quite scintillating in the first half and who sputtered at the start of the second, re-found their form towards the end of the game running a couple of well worked tries.

The final score of 34 - 19 leaves Shoreham well placed in the league as they look ahead to their next game at Uckfield in 2 weeks time.

The King of Pantomine Frederick Melville Robbins was born in Swansea, Wales in 1877.

He had three brothers and four sisters and was from the oldest working entertainment family in Britain.

The Melville’s had been treading the boards of theatres for more than a hundred years.

Frederick’s father Andrew owned many theatres and upon his death in 1896, the brothers split the running of these theatres between them.

Frederick, with his younger brother Walter, expanded their theatrical empire in 1909 when they purchased the Lyceum Theatre, London for £240,000. In 1911 they built the Princes Theatre, again in London. Today it is known as the Shaftesbury Theatre. It was here that the brothers Frederick, Walter and Andrew Junior were nicknamed the ‘Three Musketeers’ after the first show to be staged at the theatre. When Frederick and Walter let the theatre to Seymour Hicks he complained to the brothers “Don’t you think you should buy some better teacups? These are too thick for a West End theatre.”

The brothers replied. “Look here, we own every brick in this theatre. Those cups belonged to our father and what was good enough for him is good enough for everyone else.”

Frederick was also a playwright and his writing credits include the play ‘Ivanhoe’ in 1913 that was adapted for the silver screen. In 1915 he wrote the script for the eight-minute film animation ‘Diplodocus,’ which was one of the earliest cartoons to be seen in the cinema.

He also wrote the play ‘The Monk and the Woman’ in 1917. The plays that Melville wrote became known as melodramas and have been produced all over the world, in many different languages. The Lyceum Theatre

became the definitive home of pantomime and melodrama, both on and off stage.

Frederick and Walter were said to be stubborn men. Mr Bert Hammond, manager of the Lyceum said of them, “Mr Walter probably had the keenest business brain but Mr Fred was more cautious with money. Mr Fred did not permit himself a smoke until after 6pm. He wore old clothes and flung them on anyhow.

Neck ties to him were a stupid convention.”

In 1921 a feud started between Frederick and Walter Melville, though it’s unclear what caused it. They had separate offices in the Lyceum from where they co-ran the theatre, and when they were no longer on speaking terms notes had to be carried between them.

On the 21st of December 1921 Frederick Melville petitioned the high court for the legal right to close the Lyceum and dissolve the partnership. On Saturday the 18th of February 1922 it was the last night of ‘Cinderella’ at the Lyceum. Both brothers had posted separate legal notices, stating their own sides of the court case, on the stage door to inform the two hundred and fifty staff over the closure of the theatre. The performance ended and the cast were on stage receiving bouquets and applause. Backstage mutual friends asked the brothers, who were standing in the opposite wings, to go on stage and reconcile with a cont/d page 18

WHAT DOES RISING INFLATION MEAN FOR MORTGAGE HOLDERS? Inflation in 2021 is expected to hit 4%. Inflation means the cost of living will rise and, for mortgage holders, knock-on effects could mean the cost of a mortgage becomes higher.

One of the ways the Bank of England can tackle inflation if it’s rising too quickly is to increase interest rates. A rise in interest rates could affect how much your mortgage repayments are and the long-term cost of borrowing.

Could your monthly mortgage repayments rise?

If the Bank of England increases interest rates, it will have an immediate impact on some mortgage holders.

A tracker-rate mortgage follows the Bank of England’s base rate. So, mortgage holders would see their monthly outgoings increase straight away. A variable mortgage rate follows the lender’s interest rate, which will often follow rises and falls set by the Bank of England. If you have a variablerate mortgage, your repayments are also likely to rise if an interest rate hike is announced.

Those with a fixed-term mortgage will not be affected immediately. A fixed-term mortgage means your interest rate is fixed for a defined period, often 2, 3, 5 or 10 years. While you wouldn’t be affected straightaway, when your current deal ends and you look for a new mortgage, you could find interest rates are no longer as competitive.

While interest rates could rise in the coming months, it’s important to note that the Bank of England is unlikely to make steep increases. A gradual T. 01273 774855 E. advice@pembrokefs.co.uk W. www.pembrokefinancial.co.uk

approach to rising interest rates to pre-2008 levels is far more likely.

Is it time to choose a fixed-rate mortgage?

If interest rates are likely to rise, it can be tempting to switch to a fixed-rate mortgage now. There are pros and cons to choosing a fixed-rate interest mortgage that you should weigh up. But a fixed-rate mortgage can provide you with certainty about how much your mortgage will be for a defined period of time.

If your mortgage deal has not yet come to an end, you should also keep in mind that you could face an additional fee if you switch early.

Remember, the interest rate isn’t the only thing you should consider when applying for a mortgage either.

Other areas, such as the flexibility to overpay, can be just as important depending on your circumstances.

If you want Mortgage advice we can help.

Please contact us whether you’re a first-time buyer or nearing the end of your mortgage.

Please get in touch and quote reference PFSIS. As a mortgage is secured against your home or property, it could be repossessed if you do not keep up mortgage repayments.

Think carefully before securing other debts against your home.

Equity released from your home will be secured against it. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments.

The King of Pantomine cont’d handshake. Frederick and Walter came on stage and Frederick admitted later, “I was hesitating when an impatient acquaintance ran to the footlights and whispered to Mr. Jackley.” George Jackley played the baron in the show and he stepped forward and announced that the brothers were “friends again.” as they shook hands. Walter then told the audience, “We have been together for 25 years and I hope we will continue for another 25 years.”

The night ended with a standing ovation for the Melville brothers’ reconciliation as the curtain fell. However due to the legal action already undertaken, the theatre was then closed for five months. The Melville brothers reopened the theatre on the 12th of July 1922.

As the last surviving brother, Frederick died in his Shoreham Beach bungalow on the 5th of April 1938 aged 62. The Brixton Theatre that he managed as part of the family business for thirty years was renamed the Melville Theatre in his honour. He was married to the actress Elizabeth Mayer whose stage was Jane Eyre and they had two children June and Sheila.

Arts Society Steyning

British Architecture in India by Prasannajit de Silva Monday 10 January 2022 A look at the variety of architectural styles adopted by the British during the period of the Empire in India for public and private buildings. These range from the neo-classical and Gothic revival to the so-called Indo-Saracenic and even the Art Deco. Looking at examples from Kolkata, Mumbai, New Delhi and elsewhere, we will also consider what the shifting approaches may tell us about British attitudes to the imperial project.

Get OFF the sofa Alex Marek, registered osteopath at Shoreham osteopathy Centre explains how sitting contributes to chronic lower back pain and how the simple act of walking can help.

We are fast approaching that time of year again. For many of us, a time to slow down, eat more and sit for longer periods of time. Here is some food for thought to take with you into the new year.

When seated slouched on a sofa or even at a computer for long periods, your lower spinal joints and the discs between them are put under more compression.

Muscles, for example your hip flexors, become shortened affecting the position of your pelvis, thus putting excessive strain on your lower back.

Lack of physical movement can also lead to weight gain, further loading your spine and sometimes leading to cartilage and joint damage, which can be very painful.

How can walking help?

•

•

•

Keeps you strong. Walking can strengthen the large muscles in your legs, buttocks, hips and lower back.

These muscles are important for decompressing, stabilising and supporting your spine.

Maintaining a healthy weight. Walking helps increase your metabolism and reduce body fat, reducing the compression within your spine that can lead to pain.

Improves circulation and releases endorphins. Walking helps to improve blood flow. This increases the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the soft

tissues within your spine, reducing stiffness by flushing out any unwanted “toxic” chemicals. Endorphins, your body’s feel-good hormones, are released when exercising and act as natural pain relief.

Quite simply, we are made to move!

Walking is accessible, free and timeeffective. Set a manageable time goal.

Start slow. Begin with 5-10 mins per day and gradually build up time and pace.

Need motivation? Why not download the free NHS walking app Active10. wNOTE: Remember to listen to your body.

If it is too painful to walk, please seek professional medical help. Don’t hesitate to book in at Shoreham Osteopathy Centre with one of our highly-trained osteopaths. info@shorehamosteo.co.uk 01273 567654

Winter Tracery Autumn colours are a very popular subject for photographers but as we enter the Winter months there is an opportunity to photograph something that, in my opinion, offers more artistic merit Once the leaves have fallen, an intricate tracery of bare branches and twigs present wiry abstract patterns silhouetted against the sky.

Two images here have been taken from different viewpoints. One simply looking across to capture the treetops from the sort of acute angle that we would usually experience as we are walking along but the next image has been snapped looking up from directly underneath overhanging branches giving a more unusual perspective.

Of course, tracery can also throw interesting shadows, often most effective when enhanced by converting to high contrast black and white, which can add mood and interest to a street scene or, as in the final image, the tracery along with it’s complicated shadow, can help to frame the picture. This image benefits from colour as the repeated blues run throughout the scene from the panelling on the left, the road sign, the bag in the bike basket, the cyclists coat, the door and the right hand single upright panel.

The redstreet sign and the unusual typography on the door also balance. There is also a repeating theme of a form of tracery in the barriers and the bicycle frame and spokes.

Wick Theatre Company Pygmalion Pygmalion is one of Shaw’s bestloved plays.

The story of Professor Higgins’ experiment to pass a cockney flower girl, Liza, off as a member of upper-class high society and the impact that it has not only on Liza but on Higgins himself has captivated audiences since 1912 when Sir Herbert Tree and Mrs Patrick Campbell created the roles. For many film goers these roles are linked to Rex Harrison and Audrey Hepburn in the brilliant musical adaptation ‘My Fair Lady’.

The play takes us on a journey from a rainy Covent Garden evening where the linguistics experts Higgins and Colonel Pickering first encounter Liza Doolittle through the struggles to make her ‘speak like a lady’. We see the emergence of Liza as a woman who

has developed far more than her accent during the process and the emotional effect this has had on Higgins.

Some of Liza’s language was considered outrageous in 1912 and made the play a taking point, but what has made it so regularly performed ever since is its intriguing themes of language and class, and also the evolving relationship between the creator and his creation, just as in the Greek myth of the sculptor and the statue which gives the play its title.

The characters are among Shaw’s finest creations – the overbearing Higgins; feisty Liza; her roguish and philosophising father, the dustman; gentlemanly Colonel Pickering; Higgins’ long suffering mother and housekeeper and the respectable Eynsford Hills.

Last performed by the Wick in the 1980s, this play is well worth reviving, and should gives such pleasure and food for thought.

4Sight Vision Support Receives The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service Bognor-based 4Sight Vision Support is delighted to announce that it has been honoured with The Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service, the highest award a voluntary group can receive in the UK.

The recipients of this prestigious Award, which aims to recognise outstanding work by volunteer groups to benefit their local communities, were announced this morning, Wednesday 2 June.

4Sight Vision Support provides free advice, support and specialist information to blind and sight impaired residents throughout West Sussex. Its team of over 200 volunteers undertakes many diverse roles in helping the Charity deliver its services to over 2,000 people aged 4 to 100+ each year. Last year volunteers offered over 1000 hours which included over 5000 phone calls to members, working to help people with sight loss to stay active and independent and feel less isolated during the most challenging and uncertain times. In this respect, the Charity is doubly honoured to receive an additional ‘Special Recognition – Covid 19’ Commendation, awarded to those who provided impactful support to the community in response to the pandemic.

Nik Demetriades, Chief Executive Officer at 4Sight Vision Support comments, “We are very proud of our amazing team of dedicated volunteers; they and their hundreds of predecessors have always been at the heart of this Charity’s work. It is particularly profound to receive the Award in this our 100th Anniversary year, especially after the recent challenges we have faced. Just a couple of examples of our volunteers’ efforts include the continuation of an invaluable service by repairing talking watches remotely, and a team that packed nearly 2000 Kindness Packs which contained a range of items including large print crosswords, tea and

biscuits or activity books and hot chocolate for its younger members.”

Volunteer Coordinator Karen Mclachlan added, “From making regular welfare calls to members, to supporting with virtual clubs, making tea and chatting to members at our Social clubs, packing newsletters, to driving our minibuses; all our volunteers are invaluable and we are truly grateful for everything they do to support the Charity and its members and all the staff . I know that this news will mean so much to each and every one of them!”

4Sight Vision Support is one of only four charities in West Sussex to receive the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service this year, out of a total of 241 charities, social enterprises and voluntary groups across the UK. The Award was created in 2002 to celebrate The Queen’s Golden Jubilee and recipients are announced each year on 2nd June, the anniversary of The Queen’s Coronation.

Representatives of 4Sight Vision Support will receive the award crystal and certificate from The Lord-Lieutenant of West Sussex, Mrs Susan Pyper later this summer. Furthermore two volunteers will attend a garden party at Buckingham Palace in May 2022 (depending on restrictions at the time), along with other recipients of this year’s Award.

Nurse Baby delivers baby on plane!

Staff nurse Leela Baby had just the job - and the name - when the emergency call went out on the 0150 Air India flight she was travelling on: Is there a doctor or nurse on the plane?

For passenger Simi Maria Philip was seven months pregnant and she was going into labour, resulting in the pilot’s call for help with the emergency delivery.

Leela, a senior oncology nurse at University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, left her husband to settle into the long-haul flight to Cochin, and volunteered for action.

And within a couple of hours Simi had given birth to baby Shawn, and the flight was diverted from its flight path to India, and touching down in Frankfurt, so that mother and baby could be taken to hospital.

Leela, was helped by Dr Inshad Ibrahim, an A&E physician from North Wales, and Dr Richu Philip, a junior doctor working at Birmingham City Hospital, who were both on the flight and offered their services.

Leela, who was presented with an award for her work, said: “I was travelling with my husband, Joseph, from Heathrow to Cochin, when all of a sudden there was an announcement asking for any experienced doctors or nurses on board who can help with an emergency labour.

“It’s a long time since I delivered a baby so I waited at first but when a second announcement went out I came forward and volunteered.

“They asked me if I had experience working in labour and I said I have experience of working in labour when I first started working as a nurse in India, and although I’m working as a chemotherapy nurse now, I am confident I can help.

“They told me there was a woman - Simi who’s 29 weeks pregnant and in emergency labour.

“I then went ahead and asked Simi how she was doing and how the pain was. She said she was in a lot of pain and that she was having contractions. Soon after this, her waters broke so we took her to a bed by the cabin crew area.

“We examined her and the baby’s head was crowning. Then we delivered the baby safely.

Both mother and baby were safe. Whilst the doctors looked after the baby, I carefully took out the placenta.

“The flight then landed in Frankfurt, Germany and both mother and baby were taken to the University hospital.”

When the plane did finally land in India, word got round about the midwife in the sky, and the Rotary Club of Cochin, presented Leela with an award for excellence.

Leela added: “I am in touch with Simi and she and the baby are doing fine now. I am just glad I, and others, was able to help.

“It was nice, and much unexpected, to be given the award. It was certainly an eventful flight!”

Spiced Festive Biscuits Introduction

Rustle up a little festive cheer with these delectable and delicately spiced biscuits, ideal for hanging on your tree or just for brightening up your tea break.

Ingredients

For the biscuits

350g plain flour – plus extra for rolling 200g butter 175g dark brown sugar 1tbsp golden syrup 1tsp bicarbonate of soda 1 large egg ½tsp ground cinnamon ½tsp ground nutmeg ½tsp ground ginger For the decoration 100g white chocolate (melted) OR 100g icing sugar Sprinkles or silver baubles

Top Tips • Turn your biscuits into tree decorations by making a hole into each one before baking, using a skewer then thread through ribbon once cooled.

• This dough can be made ahead by placing in the freezer after having been wrapped in cling film to chill. Simply defrost and roll out to bake.

• Pre-made icing or chocolate that is ready-to-melt in a tube is a great option for those who feel less confident using a piping bag.

Method

Top Tip

Decorated biscuits will last several days on a tree or up to a week in an airtight container.

1. Gently warm the butter, sugar and golden syrup over a low heat until it has melted. Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl making a well in the centre to pour the wet ingredients into.

Mix until a workable dough forms. Once cooled, wrap the dough in cling film and place in the fridge for at least one hour to chill.

2. Preheat the oven to 190°C, fan 170°C, gas mark 5 and line two baking sheets with baking paper. Meanwhile, roll out the biscuit dough onto a lightly floured surface to around ½cm thick and cut out your biscuits using festive shapes of choice.

Reroll leftover dough and cut until you have none left. Bake for 10-12 minutes until a golden brown.

3. Once cooled, preferably on wire racks, place either melted chocolate or icing sugar – that has been mixed with water to form a thick paste – into a piping bag and use to decorate the biscuits, adding baubles and other decorations while the icing is still wet. Let dry completely before hanging.

A Design for Life… The Kevin McCloud Column Designer, writer and television presenter, Kevin McCloud leapt into our consciousness with his vastly successful Grand Designs show on Channel 4. This month, the affable architect discusses the importance of buildings in terms of who we are as people.

I’ve always regarded buildings as living, breathing, evolving things, and while you can judge each and every one architecturally, sometimes the real fabric of a home, an office, a shop, a theatre – whatever it may be – is in the people and personalities who inhabit it.

It’s always interesting with Grand Designs when we revisit buildings several years down the line to see how they have grown and merged into their environments.

When a project is freshly completed there is always an element of buildings appearing clinical and, I guess, unhomely. I would even suggest that a scuffed skirting board or lightly scratched wooden floor adds personality to a space, so we should all be encouraged to enjoy our homes, to throw ourselves around in them, without fear of losing that show home chic.

It’s funny, I remember one of the first projects we did, down in Brighton. I went back after 12 or 13

years and discovered that the kids who were five or so were now these strapping 18-year-olds and heading off to university, while this ‘house’ was truly transformed into a home.

In other projects we revisited, we had many people who had started projects effectively homeless, or as single parents, or totally new to architecture and construction.

Many of these now find themselves with design qualifications, or having become a local councillor, or perhaps they are sitting on the board of a housing association, all giving back to the community.

For me, that shows that in the right circumstances when you’re given the chance to build (which is an empowering process) and to experience living in great architecture, it leads to people’s lives changing for the better.

It’s no coincidence and I see this all the time; and I love that because it vindicates so much of what I’d felt and believed about buildings for so long.

So when people ask me to name my favourite buildings, the answer, quite simply, is to suggest the best ones are those that make people happy. That’s essentially what we build for – security, protection, survival and enjoyment. A building can only ever be the platform for what truly makes a place, and that’s the people.
