The project was completed early 2018 and has been widely acclaimed receiving a commendation in the Cornish Building Group Awards as well as a recent nomination for the LABC Awards 2020 for Best Change of use of an Existing Building and Best Public Service or Educational Building.
“Everything is running really well, and it is lovely to see all the people using the building . It has made an enormous impact within and outside of the Cathedral community. I have loved working with you”
