The Bill House is proud to announce it has been recognised as ‘Highly Commended’ in the Landscape and Gardens category at the Sussex Heritage Trust 2024 Awards.
This award proves the care and dedication invested in the preservation and enhancement of The Bill House’s historic gardens.
The Bill House Dementia Garden was lovingly designed by Annie Guilfoyle, who is based in West Sussex and has judged gardens at RHS Chelsea Flower Show. The Bill House sought the support of Guilfoyle due to their shared belief in the power of gardens to stimulate, nurture and healing.
The Sussex Heritage Trust Awards celebrate the region’s annual achievements in conservation, restoration, and design, highlighting projects that demonstrate outstanding commitment to preserving the area’s rich heritage.
The Bill House was recognised for its meticulous and sensitive approach to landscape design, which blends historical elements with contemporary dementia support in mind.
“We are delighted to receive this award from the prestigious Sussex Heritage Trust, recognising the fantastic design and care of our Sensory garden. Our clients love the garden and there is no better place to be on a sunny day with the English Channel as our water feature! ”
“We would like to extend our greatest appreciation to Annie from Creative Landscapes for her wonderful design, the team at Nutbourne Construction for their build of the project and Manorwood Architects for their input and support.”
