Hugh Dagliesh

Written By Alan Wann

We have had the very sad news that Hugh Dagliesh our fellow DesigNE panelist passed away suddenly on Friday 28 August.Please see the announcement received from his colleagues at IDP Partnership about Hugh’s passing.

Hugh was a lovely and thoughtful man who made a huge contribution in the planning and urban design sector in the North East and elsewhere.

We , at Designe will undoubtedly miss Hugh’s warm and insightful contributions.
