Overview

In this FREE webinar kindly supported by United St Saviour’s Charity, we celebrate modern hospice design with distinguished architect and author, Ken Worpole. Our expert panel explores key aspects of modern hospice design, as featured in his recently updated publication, ‘Modern Hospice Design: The architecture of palliative and social care’ (2nd edition).

United St Saviour's Charity share the learning on their latest scheme Appleby Blue in Bermondsey, referenced in Ken Worpole’s new publication, and we are also joined by PRP Architects, a winner last year in the National Housing Design Awards for creating a compassionate and homely hospice environment.
