LADYWELL LEISURE CENTRE SITE Community Engagement Residents are at the heart of what we do and we want you to play a role in the decision making and design process. Our mission is to deliver high quality housing and for this we need your help. At this event we want to listen to you about your relationship to the site, what journeys you make around the site to get to school, work or other locations. We want to hear more about what the development could incorporate to support the local community and how you think we could improve the public space around the site E H AR ER E E Project Timeline W ! 2019 2020 October November December January February March April May Summer Procurement Evaluation of Training for Submit Residents Landscape Residents Public Public Design & Architect with LH Planning Workshop 01 Community Workshop 02 Exhibition 01 Exhibition 02 & DCCs Application Champions Meeting with Meeting with Planners Planners Jake Sherwood and Gipsy Hill Site Model Love Building for Lewisham While study my BA in architecture I realised I really liked making site models.
