They were shortlisted for the RIBA Stirling Prize for the redevelopment of the Park Hill Estate in Sheffield, and most recently, were winners of the 2020 AJ100 Best Use of Technology Award for their in-house carbon emission reduction tool.

Introduction
The Town Centre Vision
Welcome to the public consultation for the regeneration of the Farnham and Hilldene Estate.
Our vision is to create a lively, sustainable town centre to support shops, businesses, and the community.
Havering Council have been consulting with residents about the future of the Farnham & Hilldene Estate since 2016.
The new town centre will be a safe and accessible pedestrian environment, with places to sit, more trees, sufficient visitor parking, and a range of different restaurants, bars, and retail.
We understand that the town centre plays a big role in community life, and we aim to establish an active new shopping area and social hub to serve the community in the long-term.

Introduction
How and when?
The Family Welcome Centre and Medical Centre will be the first project delivered as part of the regeneration of Harold Hill Town Centre.
Welcome to the public consultation for the regeneration of the Farnham and Hilldene Estate.
Havering Council have been consulting with residents about the future of the Farnham & Hilldene Estate since 2016.
A planning application will be submitted early next year, with construction works set to begin at the end of next year. The opening of the centre is planned for the middle of 2024.
The Farnham and Hilldene shopping area is a key place for Harold Hill’s residents and businesses. The area needs investment to help continue to make it a beacon for the neighbourhood and the whole community to continue to enjoy.
For the Chippenham Road and Town Centre sites, a key aim of the project team is to keep disruption to residents and business to a minimum and ensure that Harold Hill can continue to be a thriving part of the local community throughout these changes.
The Council have begun to explore what change the investment in the area could deliver and the benefits it can bring residents, business and the wider community.
To achieve this, redevelopment will be phased to allow for business continuity. This means only emptying one section of the town centre at a time, demolishing it, and then building new homes and business units.
This event has been designed to provide an update on progress, introduced the architects and their initial thoughts, and understand your priorities for the area.
Phases 1 & 2
Phase 3
We will then work with tenants in the next demolition phase to move them into the new buildings or alternative locations, before starting to demolish that phase.
The team are still very much in the early stages of the design process and need your feedback to help build a shared vision for the future of Farnham and Hilldene Estate.
Your feedback
Overall, we expect the full redevelopment to take around nine years from when we start in 2025.
Full details of the phasing for the regeneration are outlined in the table below:

Farnham and Hilldene Estate update
Welcome to the public consultation for the regeneration of the Farnham and Hilldene Estate.
Our vision for Farnham and Hilldene Estate is to deliver high-quality new homes and retail units to support residents, businesses and the wider community.
Havering Council have been consulting with residents about the future of the Farnham & Hilldene Estate since 2016.
We have taken on board your feedback from our summer consultation and the architects have continued working to create a better place to live, work, shop and visit.
The Farnham and Hilldene shopping area is a key place for Harold Hill’s residents and businesses. The area needs investment to help continue to make it a beacon for the neighbourhood and the whole community to continue to enjoy.
They are continuing to develop a mix of 1, 2, and 3-bedroom homes each with access to private outdoor space and designed to meet modern standards, with good sized rooms and generous built-in storage.
The Council have begun to explore what change the investment in the area could deliver and the benefits it can bring residents, business and the wider community.
This event has been designed to provide an update on progress, introduced the architects and their initial thoughts, and understand your priorities for the area.
The new, safe and accessible town centre will have well managed visitor car parking and be better connected to the surrounding neighbourhoods. It will have better designed areas for deliveries and bins, and be a nicer place to spend time in with places to sit, more trees and green space, a pocket park, and good lighting.
The team are still very much in the early stages of the design process and need your feedback to help build a shared vision for the future of Farnham and Hilldene Estate.
The redevelopment will be phased so that only 25 to 30% of the town centre is under construction at any given time, making sure it can still serve its vital role as a place to shop, visit or live.
