Architecture and Design Scotland (A+DS) is inviting local authorities across Scotland to take part in Stalled Spaces Scotland, a Legacy 2014 programme aimed at supporting local authorities and communities to bring derelict and vacant land back in to temporary use to benefit communities and enhance town centres.
To align with the Scottish Government’s Town Centre Action Plan and the Town Centre First Principle the programme will primarily look at stalled spaces located within town centres to empower people to bring these spaces back into positive use for the benefit for the whole community.
Starting in the summer of 2014 A+DS will support the development of up to 30 Stalled Spaces sites across Scotland by December 2016. A+DS will take forward a programme of consultation with local authorities. Later in the year we will host a seminar to inspire and support local authorities, business improvement groups and communities to take their own projects forward.
