CHD Living shortlisted for Pinders Awards

A FAMILY-owned care group, based in Surrey, has been shortlisted for the Pinders Healthcare Design Awards 2020.

Pinders Awards recognise the very best developments in all types of care-related property.


CHD Living’s Brownscombe Care Residences has been selected as a finalist in the category of ‘Best Regeneration Project’.

Located on the grounds of Brownscombe House Nursing Home in Haslemere, Surrey, the group’s first acquisition in 1984 - the newly built Brownscombe Lodge residential care home and the supported living apartments in the cottage are set within three acres of terraced landscaped gardens.

Shortlisted by a panel of judges, including healthcare architects, interior designers, valuers, lenders, and operators, Brownscombe Care Residences will now be visited for inspection and a winner for the category decided.

Winners will be announced at the Healthcare Design Awards presentation, which is due to take place at The Royal Lancaster London on March 11.

Speaking of the nomination, Nazira & Liakat Hasham, founders of Brownscombe House and CHD Living, said: “We feel honoured to have been shortlisted in the category of ‘Best Regeneration Project’ at the Pinders Healthcare Design Awards 2020.

"As a group, the development of Brownscombe Care Residences has been one of our biggest and most exciting projects to date. Determined to offer the very best facilities for the benefit of all, it has very much been a collaborative experience between staff, residents and their families - who were all consulted regularly during the design and build process - and we’re delighted for our efforts to have been recognised in this way.”

Now taking reservations, each of the 25 large, private, full en-suite bedrooms at Brownscombe Lodge will come equipped with a multi-positioning, electric profiling care bed, an HD flat-screen TV, private telephone line, free Wi-Fi, option of SKY TV and a nurse attendant system.

In addition, there is a range of facilities on offer to residents, from a bistro with live show kitchen and chefs table, a cinema room with IT suite, hairdressing and spa facilities, landscaped terraces, all-weather winter garden, Japanese sensory garden and aquarium.

The group is set to open its eight luxury, supported living apartments in Brownscombe Cottage next Spring.

Each apartment has been interior designed, with their own kitchen, shower-room and lounge, a private house manager and access to all facilities at Brownscombe House and Lodge.

The Healthcare Design Awards, which Pinders has been organising since 1999, is becoming one of the most prestigious events in the healthcare calendar.

UK’s SUV boom could be deepening pothole damage, experts say

  • SUVs now make up over half of new car sales in the UK

  • Pothole repair costs hit £18.6 billion across England and Wales

Britain’s growing shift towards SUVs is now being linked to the country’s worsening pothole crisis, with experts warning that heavier vehicles are accelerating road damage even as drivers turn to them to cope with poor surfaces.

SUVs accounted for more than half of the 2 million new cars sold in the UK, while their share in the second-hand market is also rising. The trend appears to be partly driven by deteriorating road conditions, with new research showing that a section of motorists are actively choosing larger vehicles to deal with potholes.
