Detail
The largest of its kind in the UK and located on a sloping site in a woodland area, the design of the building and choice of materials provide the Centre with a contemporary structure that is sensitive to its woodland surroundings. The project provides 32 bed spaces with en-suite facilities as group social spaces and dining facilities. More information here.
Due to demand for this much needed facility, Brock Carmichael also undertook a second commission to provide a second building focused on facilities for young people with access needs.
