Thanks to colleagues for implementing their protocols for Operation Forth Bridge, following the passing of the Duke of Edinburgh on Friday. I can now confirm more details for local authorities. You will probably have seen that the funeral has been arranged for Saturday 17 April. This means that the official period of mourning will finish on Sunday 18 April at 8am. I hope that the following advice is helpful: • The funeral will be broadcast, including a minute’s silence at 3pm on 17 April. You may wish to encourage your communities to mark this at home. The Palace is giving a strong lead on adhering to guidelines about the public health restrictions to avoid gatherings. • Flags being flown at half-mast should return to full mast at 8am on Sunday 18 April if practicable. If your buildings are not staffed on a Sunday, it is acceptable for this to be done on Monday 19 April instead, as soon as possible in the morning. • It is expected that the Palace’s online book of condolence will be closed at 8am on Sunday 18 April. You are invited to do likewise if you have an online book of condolence, or as soon as practicable on the Monday.

    A most beautiful way of life Welcome to Calista - an outstanding collection of 29 two and three bedroom beachfront apartments, situated in West Worthing on the glorious Sussex coast. These luxurious homes, from award-winning, premier developer Roffey Homes, combine harmonious architecture, stylish interiors and majestic sea views, ensuring that Calista faithfully lives up to its name, which is inspired by the Greek Kallistō, meaning “most beautiful”. Recently recommended by an international travel inspiration website, as one of the top places in the world to watch a sunset, the town of Worthing is considered by many to be a hidden treasure. Offering a mixture of seaside tradition and heritage with sensitive regeneration and perpetual reinvention, the town has an enduring reputation as an exceptional place to live. A remarkable waterfront position Occupying a commanding position on the south-east corner of highly sought after Grand Avenue, Calista provides a striking new focal point to the West Worthing seafront, while skillfully complementing its surroundings. Employing a synthesis of contemporary and traditional design, these distinctive residences use a palette of materials influenced by pebbles from the adjacent beach, to ensure the overall effect agreeably blends with the shoreline environs. Enjoying panoramic views across the English Channel, Calista sits opposite an imposing gateway to the esplanade, which was originally intended to be the entranceway to a second pier, planned in the late 1800s. This rare position affords the unique opportunity to reside in one of Worthing’s most prominent locations, in a beautifully appointed and painstakingly crafted apartment, that you will undoubtedly feel proud to own.

  • Chair's Report to C20 Southern Region AGM – 28 March 2021
    Chair’s Report to C20 Southern Region AGM – 28 March 2021 Introduction At our AGM in February 2020 we were looking forward to another programme of outdoor meetings and events. Things changed so quickly from that date and everything very quickly moved online. I hope members have been able to join the many and varied Zoom events organised by C20 Head Office. More recently our Group has been working with the South West and West Groups to host a series of online events – our first on Seaside Architecture to be followed on 28th March (the day after our AGM) by a session on Ecclesiastical Building. We were pleased to have 65+ people attend the Seaside Architecture session. Future Programme We will be guided by C20 Head Office as to when we can resume outdoor events and the format these may need to take including numbers. These were the plans we had for 2020 and would seem to be a good basis to plan our next schedule subject to discussion with the original hosts: Hooke Park, near Beaminster and Briantspuddle (model village) with Mike Henderson (access to this event would be by car as no public transport serves these locations) Christchurch, Dorset Emsworth, West Sussex with Paul Underhill Woking, Surrey with Caroline Martin and Pauline Mousley Brighton with David Robson Potential Event on Hampshire Schools Others to consider: Shute House Garden, Shaftesbury, Wiltshire, 1969 – Sir Geoffrey Jellicoe A return to Poundbury – trip to be organised jointly with the South West Region Expanding the Committee The existing officers of the committee are proposing that we expand the committee to a total of six that means we have three vacancies to fill.
