Extend your pole and stand further back.

It was between 2 buildings, could not get any more room!

Do you have a swivel where you can use the length of a longer brush (45cm) to reach the bottom?

If it's a Gardiners pole you can get a quick loc angle extender https://gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/quick-loqr-extender-angle-adapter.html for about £6 which gives you about 15cm more reach to get over the sills alternatively you are looking at carbon goosenecks https://gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/a...e-carbon-fibre-alloy-goosenecks-fittings.html

Thanks for help - will check out Gardiners site. Have been thinking about a swivel fitting as some arched windows are not very easy.
Had not thought of using them sideways for extra lower reach - thanks1

Swivels are great for being able to stand to the side of windows down side alleys so you don't get soaked standing under them!! If your using Gardiners quick loc you can rotate the brush 90 degrees on the connector that might help? Adjusting the swivel is something that you can do to have it looser or tighter, it's something to try when you get one as I find, if it's too loose it twists too easy when doing sills but it's great to angle the brush a little to get the sides of the frames not a good thing for gsf cleaning though.

This https://gardinerpolesystems.co.uk/quick-loqr-angle-adapter-type-1-with-swivel-gooseneck.html is all you should need I do deep plastic sills down the sides of houses with no bother at all and did before getting a swivel last week.

This very much depends how deep the sills are. If they're upto 8" a swivel might work. If they're deeper the only option would be to change the angle of the brush
