Under the then Prince Regent later to become King George IV his era encompassed a time of great social, political, and even economic change. With it upper class society flourished in a sort of ‘mini renaissance’ of culture and refinement. An instigator of this style was John Nash who designed the Regency terraces of Regent’s Park and Regent Street in London. Excellent examples of Regency properties dominate Brighton and Hove in East Sussex; in particular in its Kemp Town and Brunswick (Hove) estates. In London itself there are many streets in the style in the areas around Victoria, Pimlico, Mayfair and other central districts. The town of Cheltenham in Gloucestershire also provides many fine examples of Regency architecture and makes the claim to be “the most complete regency town in England”. The Cheltenham Synagogue is judged by Nikolaus Pevsner to be one of the architecturally “best” non-Anglican religious buildings in Britain. Good illustrations of the Regency style can also be seen in Royal Leamington Spa in Warwickshire, particularly in parts of The Parade, Clarendon Square and Landsdowne Circus. The elegance and lightness of touch that dominated the Regency period in the early 19th Century are perfectly reproduced in the original and now iconic ‘Princess’ brand. We have created a Collection of products all hand crafted and forged or cast from premium grade solid brass, covering door handles, knobs, bathroom furniture, window fittings and a range of accessories and entrance door furniture. All Princess products are available in our extensive range of surface patinations (finishes). 4 Finishes Vintage Brass (VB)* Light Antique Brass (LAB)* Medium Antique Brass (MAB)* Dark Antique Brass (DAB)* Bronze Metal Antique (BMA)* Black Electro-Phoretic (BEP) Electro-Phoretic (EP)* Satin Brass (SB)* Polished Brass (PB) * Polished Brass Un-Lacquered (PBUL) Gold Plated (GP) Titanium Gold/PVD (TG/PVD) French Lacquer Guilt (FLG) Polished Chrome (PC) Satin Chrome (SC) Silver Plated (SP) Antique Silver (AS) Black Nickel (BN) Polished Nickel (PN) Satin Nickel (SN) Rose Gold (RG) Polished Copper (PCu)* Satin Copper (SCu)* Light Antique Copper (LACu)* Medium Antique Copper (MACu)* Dark Antique Copper (DACu)* All BrassArt products are available in any of our finishes.

Colour and texture variation is inherent in the creation of hand finished patinas; and once installed, touch, time and environment should lead to gradual wear and oxidization, lending character and elegance. 6 Bathroom Accessories 927 931 965 963 928 966 964 929 923 961 924 962 922 960 Our products are available in all BrassArt finishes. 8 Cabinet Furniture 937/1 937/2 938 939 925/39 Window Furniture 946 947MP 342 967 947WP 947HP 350 945/1 Our products are available in all BrassArt finishes. 10 Entrance Door Furniture 903/1 941/1 952 912 900/1 900/2 933/58 957 905 901 940/2 Our products are available in all BrassArt finishes. 12 Door Furniture 944PY 919C 934C 944PU 938/34 930/20 911 933/40 940/1 925/39 939 925 933 940/2 Our products are available in all BrassArt finishes. 14 Door Furniture 921/1CF/921/1/50 921/1FF/921/1/50 921/2CF/921/1/50 921/2FF/921/1/50 950/1/921/1/50 921/1CF/921/1 921/1FF/921/1 921/2CF/921/1 921/2FF/921/1 950/1/921/1 948/1/921/1/50 949/1/921/1/50 925/1/921/1/50 954/1/921/1/50 918/1/921/1/50 948/1/921/1 949/1/921/1 925/1/921/1 954/1/921/1 918/1/921/1 The above products are available in varying functions. eg. lock plate, bathroom/privacy plate.

Our commitment to community engagement Our standards for community engagement Our actions for improving community engagement How will the Community Engagement Framework be implemented & monitored? Contacts and Acknowledgements Information about the development of the Community Engagement Framework, and copies of the Framework and the accompanying consultation report are available on the 2020 Community Partnership website www.2020community.org/cef Introduction The Community Engagement Framework has been developed to be both a policy document and a practical resource. As a policy document it sets out the 2020 Community Partnership’s commitment to and understanding of community engagement in Brighton and Hove. As a practical resource it provides a clear definition of community engagement and importantly sets specific standards for community engagement that all Partners must adhere to. It identifies the first wave of priority actions that must be taken to improve community engagement in the city. As a policy document and a practical tool the Community Engagement Framework will help the 2020 Community Partnership achieve its vision for Brighton and Hove….. ‘of a dynamic city that improves and protects the environment, meets social needs and promotes sustainable economic success in an inclusive, just and harmonious way’ We are not starting from scratch. We recognise that good community engagement activity has and is happening in the city. However, this is the first time that as a group of public, private and community and voluntary organisations we have produced a common approach to community engagement.

    THE FOR CULTURAL RECOVERY Introduction In the middle of the storm, with livelihoods threatened and organisations at risk of collapse, Brighton & Hove’s cultural and creative sector came together. Over 100 creative workers: award-winning artists and those just starting out, leaders and frontline staff of organisations large and small, those freelance and those salaried, participated in 17 conversations over two weeks in September 2020. With generosity, solidarity and common purpose, they focussed on how one of the most vital sectors to Brighton & Hove’s economy and reputation might recover from the crisis and find more sustainable and inclusive ways to grow in the future. This is their plan... 2 | The ABCD for Cultural Recovery Context Creative/cultural industries generated More than At over Brighton’s performing arts sector Home to 13 £1.5bn 16,000 6,100 £329m of Arts Council England’s (ACE) in annual turnover employees in creative businesses companies based in Brighton & Hove turnover in 2018/19 National Portfolio Organisations The strength of Brighton & Hove as a creative city is well arts festival, Brighton Fringe) forming part of its regular Most of the city’s theatres, venues, and museums remain known.
