It was great to meet up with the many groups, council team and councillors, Douglas Kerrigan (OCC Project manager), and of course all from the ODS team.

Harry as project architect has guided the project from a RIBA stage 3 planning scheme when we were first involved to its completion. Working alongside several consultants including SWJ and Taylor Consulting we developed designs to provide much improved community facilities.

It has been fulfilling to work alongside ODS on this project for the past several years to deliver the extensive refurbishment and retrofit of the existing community centre and the construction of the brand new sustainable, timber framed new extension.

It certainly holds a special place at Jessop and Cook Architects!

The client’s treated us to nibbles and wine whilst we looked at the house. The small former coach house was extended and transformed over. The project took over 10 years to materialise and many of the J&C team members worked on it, including most project architects earlier in their career.

Thanks to Beard for organising the event, especially Luke Bennett. It was great to see so many other people there as well. Hope everyone’s legs aren’t too achy today!

Harry, Rob & Barnaby started the day off strong powering through to lunch then passed the batten to Aline, Martin, Tahima, Amanda & Danni to bring it home! This year, we managed not to come last and ended at a respectable 24th!. We better get training to get 23rd place next year!

It was great to see so much raised for fantastic charities. #jessopandcook #blenheim #networking #oxford #dinner #JessopandCook #JandC #Oxford #Oxfordshire

As well as their specialised services, during its sunnier seasons, visitors are also encouraged to explore all parts of the vineyard, walled gardens and enjoy a local glass of wine (furry friends welcome).

Keep an eye open for any upcoming events on their website and get involved!

In developing the brief it was clear that upgrading existing commodities would help with overall experience & day-to-day running. Replacing the existing garden office, polytunnel & barn was a necessity as these spaces act centrally for the staff & individuals who are working towards recovery.

Bridewell Gardens is an outstanding mental health charity located in rural West Oxfordshire who provide a recovery service through social and therapeutic horticulture in a working garden to adults. Their service is available to those in Oxfordshire and aim to restore hope in recovery.

Please get in touch with Amanda, at amandas@jessopandcook.co.uk if you’re interested in any future projects.
