We are looking to gain support in terms of a Feasibility Study for our upcoming development (doof music studio). The purpose of the studio is to provide a creative outlet for young people and adults from areas of deprivation. We feel this won’t only have a direct impact on our players and the wider community, but provide Dundee with an incredible resource. Promoting transformational growth, positive experiences and empowering creativity.

Robertson have supported the Community Wish raised through DCC’s portal to provide Feasibility and Business Case support for the works. This included partner meetings with Turn the Tables, an onsite survey of the conversion space and meeting with DCC Building Control. They provided formal design of the space via one of their in-house Design Managers and fully supported the submission of a Building Warrant application, which was subsequently approved. In addition, they have further supported the Change Centre with a charitable donation to contribute toward the project and will look to assist with the delivery of works as the project progresses. Robertsons have indicated that Supporting the Doof Studio project has had a really positive impact on their team. It has strengthened our relationship with local organisations like Street Soccer, Turn The Tables and Dundee City Council, and it has shown how we can work together to deliver something that benefits the whole community. It has also allowed staff to use our skills in a meaningful way, from the very early stages of planning through to design and support for delivery. It has allowed our team to work closely with partners on something that goes beyond construction and helps to improve opportunities for people in the local area. Kyle Fraser from the Change Centre Said “We have successfully been granted our building warrant by Dundee City Council to build our studio in Change Centre Dundee. Massive thanks to Robertson Group construction for working in partnership with the Change Centre and Turn The Tables.
