Alison Brooks to design Taunton Maggie’s Centre
The latest Maggie’s Centre for supporting people with cancer to feature a leading architect is a building in Taunton, Somerset, which will be designed by Alison Brooks Architects. Design and architecture have always been central to Maggie’s Centres,
which have seen an impressive list of major architects leading their design including Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, OMA, Rogers Stirk Harbour and Steven Holl. The centres commonly offer a calm as well as uplifting environment as well as an evidence-based programme of support. Brooks and team will design Maggie’s Taunton for a site on the fringes of
Musgrove Park Hospital, and the architect has joined forces with Johanna Gibbons of JLG Landscape Architecture and structural engineers Webb Yates for the project. Laura Lee, chief executive at Maggie’s, which is a registered charity,
commented: “We are excited by the designs put forward by Alison Brooks and JLG. Great design and architecture are integral to what we do as every one of our centres is specially designed to welcome people and offer them a place to seek practical advice, talk to others with cancer or just sit quietly with a cup of tea while awaiting appointments.” Alison Brooks said: “We’re honoured to be working with Maggie’s to
design a new centre in Taunton. Our project will build on Maggie Keswick Jencks’ legacy of extraordinary and uplifting spaces for cancer patients and their families.

illbruck is celebrating its TP600 Compriband joint sealing tape’s 20th birthday. illbruck TP600 Compriband 600 is a joint sealing tape for outdoor use. It is highly flexible, which allows it to provide a weather-tight seal for facade joints with a depth of up to 40mm. TP600 fulfils all the requirements of BG1 in accordance with DIN 18542 and bears the CE mark. Tremco illbruck has been testing TP600 in real-life circumstances in Bodenwohr, Germany since 1995 and, after 20 years of weathering, TP600 is still going strong. The tape has sur-
vived harsh weather conditions such as ice, snow, driving rain and UV radiation and still has the same movement qualities as it did 20 years ago.
