Director Simon Erridge to present Shaftesbury Theatre in the NLA webinar: learning from community award winners

12.11.2021

On Friday 19th November, 10:00–11:00, the NLA invites Bennetts Associates Director Simon Erridge to speak in their community programme. The webinar will focus on Shaftesbury Theatre where back in 2016, won the NLA Community Prize. As lead architect of the award-winning project, Simon will discuss the scheme, provide an update on how it’s being used and integrated into the local area and what Bennetts Associates as a practice learnt from the collaborative process.

Celebrating community-driven design and collaboration, the Community Prize is awarded to the scheme that demonstrates the most positive and meaningful impact on the place where it is located. Selected from submissions across all categories, successful projects are exemplary in their response to the social context, contributing to a sense of local identity and helping communities to thrive.

As part of the Community Programme, we explore past projects from the NLA Awards to understand and reflect upon the impact and value of a project to people and place over time.
