The Board announcement comes at a pivotal stage for the project, which aims to see the leisure facility reopened to the public following extensive renovation work throughout the building.
In recent months the voluntary group has spearheaded critical survey and reporting efforts essential for the Category B listed building, in addition to hosting events that provide an opportunity for the local community to experience the building in an entirely new way. Recent events have included Aberdeen Jazz Festival – Soundbath and a captivating concert from Aberdeen University’s Chamber Choir.

With a diverse skillset ranging from construction, architecture and town planning to HR, community engagement, wellbeing and HSE, we are well positioned to make these ambitious plans a reality for Aberdeen’s future.”
