Deanestor provided the furniture and fitout services for a £20m community hub in Chryston which provides primary education and community healthcare services in a shared campus development.
We manufactured, procured and installed over 5,200 items of furniture and equipment for this scheme, including shelving, seating, storage cabinets, worktops, tables, and teaching aids.
The building is replacing the existing Chryston Primary School and has spaces for up to 509 pupils to meet the rising demand for school places in the area.
It is naturally lit and has flexible spaces to accommodate a wide range of learning requirements.
The hub also incorporates a community health clinic to support the provision of health services.
Ramsay McDonald, Managing Director of Deanestor Scotland, said, "We were absolutely delighted to have been awarded this second project for North Lanarkshire Council. Both this and the Newmains Community Hub are very innovative, using a shared campus approach to deliver state-of-the-art facilities to the benefit of the local communities.”
“Chryston Community Hub is a really unique scheme and a flagship development for shared community facilities. Deanestor has extensive, specialist experience in the delivery of furniture and fitout services for both education and healthcare projects, which added value to this latest contract.”
