Students and developer unveil pictures on site of former Stag Inn at 33 Upper Bedford Street

Homes for the future

Students from Hamilton Lodge Deaf School & College have created a series of imaginative and colourful paintings depicting their ideal homes of the future for local property developer Godfrey Investments. The large pictures will hang on site in Upper Bedford Street during the construction of a three storey building with two commercial units and nine 1, 2 and 3 bedroom flats.

Godfrey Investments are keen to give something back to the local community. They approached Hamilton Lodge and after discussing what would work best for both parties the school and college were provided with free materials from Brighton Dulux to produce the pictures and a £1500 donation from Godfrey Investments towards a new fitness trail.

Homes for the future

Hamilton Lodge Principal Graham Sheppard, said: “This is a great partnership between a local employer and a local school and college. Our students loved being able to produce such large colourful designs that will be displayed to the public whilst fulfilling the practical purpose of brightening up a building site. Thank you to Godfrey Investments for approaching us and supporting us in achieving this lovely outcome.”

Amanda Godfrey of Godfrey Investments, said: “We want to engage with the local community and we asked the children of Hamilton Lodge School to design their vision of “Homes for The Future”. We are excited and so proud to showcase their paintings on our hoarding where they will remain throughout the course of our build.”
