Community Projects

My passion for health & leisure is focused on community facilities and embraces a holistic approach to wellbeing. My work covers community mental health, lifetime homes advice, extensions and refurbishments, community sports and leisure facilities.

Recent health & leisure projects include: Community sports pavilion; Physical Education and Sports Client Advice; mental health hospital redevelopment.

My expertise in the field of education goes back some 20 years, during which time I have designed and delivered a full spectrum of education projects, from higher education and further education, primary and secondary schools, through to special needs schools and nursery buildings.

Recent education projects include: St Mary Magdalene Through School on the Greenwich Peninsula; staff accommodation at Beadales School; St George’s Neighbourhood Nursery in Brighton.

The children at St John’s now have an amazing space to use and it will enhance the learning experience for many years to come. I hope all your future projects are equally successful.

My approach to re-use of existing buildings is at the heart of a commitment to addressing climate change. Carbon reductions can be achieved through good design that combines conservation, a fabric-first approach to energy-efficiency, evidence-based ecological design and thoughtful specification of materials.  This achieves reduced running costs and carbon emissions with improved comfort, health and well-being for all users.

I led the following recent projects while at Pritchard Architecture:  Seven Sisters Country Park (conversion and deep retrofit of ten listed buildings); Crofters (step-by-step retrofit of a heritage property); Furzey Gardens, a social enterprise for learning disabled adults (masterplan for extension and deep retrofit of listed buildings).
