proved the key to ensuring that members enjoy their privacy, particularly in the ladies changing room, where Craſtsman have achieved discreet areas to effectively create three changing areas in one. Te challenge was to complete the refur-

to ceiling presented a huge challenge,” Chaffey continues: “Particularly for a club of Hogarth’s standing, where member expec- tations run so high. In the ladies changing room, we worked back virtually to first fix ready for fitting new plasterboarding - while


reconfiguring the locker layout to create the space to change in comfort and privacy.” In what was a “tricky and fragmented


project” that required extensive planning and preparation to succeed, the teams “all worked together to minimise aggravation to our members,” Chaffey stresses. John Gibbs adds: “Tis was a great


example of co-ordinated teamwork committed to realise the club’s vision in meeting the Hogarth’s members’ ever- rising level of expectations.”
