Judges Comments
Relationships played a big part in achieving the one prime objective on this project - to provide Child Cancer Foundation a superb new facility that provides a supportive environment for children and their families.
Taking a narrow inner city site, the team created a dedicated support and administration facility, together with an attached apartment intended for sale to cover costs. All parties donated considerable time, materials and goodwill to deliver, for the Foundation, a debt-free home.
A dedicated, generous and focused project team – thoroughly deserving of this special award.
