Revitalising The Blue

A community campaign led by Blue Bermondsey BID was successful in securing £2m capital funding from the Mayor of London’s LEAP Good Growth Fund, supported by Southwark Council.

Locally based Turner prize winning collective, Assemble + Hayatsu Architects were chosen to undertake the design work with their impressive tender proposal entitled ‘Made In Bermondsey’. The initial designs were refined and further developed in collaboration with the local community through intense consultation during 2019/ 2020.

The regeneration of Market Place formed the centre piece of the improvements to create a first class flexible public space at the heart of the Blue, Bermondsey’s historic town centre.  Warwick Landscaping were appointed to undertake the building works works, which began in January 2021 and now the major element of the project are complete.
