Horsham District Council’s Sussex Building Control team and Horsham based Gaffney Architecture scooped a major business award at the 2020 South East Local Authority Building Control (LABC) Building Excellence Awards.

They won the Best Partnership award category.

The ceremony, usually held at a local hotel venue to celebrate technical design and construction quality across the South East, was held virtually this year as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

The LABC Best Partnership Award showcases the importance of good partnership between the architect and Building Control. Collaboration within the partnership contributes towards a smoother design and construction process leading to more successful buildings.
