One of the things we love most is working alongside communities to help bring ambitious ideas to life, particularly projects that include community huts and shared outdoor spaces. Over the past few months, we’ve had the pleasure of working closely with the trustees of Dyemill Bike Park and the Arran High School Mountain Biking Club to develop proposals for Phase II of Dyemill Bike Park on the Isle of Arran.
From the very beginning, this has been a genuinely collaborative project. Together we’ve explored how the bike park can continue to grow into a destination that supports local people, welcomes visitors and creates opportunities for the wider Arran community.
The proposals include new mountain bike tracks, community huts, toilet and shower facilities, an outdoor kitchen and eating shelter, and improved spaces for events and learning, all designed to create welcoming, flexible places that strengthen community connections and encourage more time spent outdoors together.
These additions aren’t just about creating great cycling facilities. They’re about designing welcoming, flexible spaces, including community huts, that strengthen community connections and encourage people to spend more time outdoors together.
It’s always wonderful to work on projects where buildings and landscapes come together to support recreation, wellbeing and local enterprise.
