Coming to our senses; person-centered inclusive design: Trudi Beswick, CEO, Caudwell Children

In 2019 Caudwell Children officially opened the new Caudwell International Children’s Centre in Keele, Staffordshire. The opening represented a milestone for charity Chief Executive, Trudi Beswick, who had worked tirelessly to create a truly inclusive environment for a diverse community of users. At the core of the design process was a commitment to regular and meaningful stakeholder engagement, with direct input from disabled and neurodiverse children having a tangible influence on the resulting design. This person-centered approach to inclusive design has led to the project winning numerous awards including the Design in Mental Health ‘New Build Project of the Year’ and the RICS ‘UK Project of the Year’.
