Centre wins planning permission
macmon chartered architects
12 Dec 2008
The Craigshill Learning Disabilities Centre in Livingstone has been granted
planning permission by West Lothian Council. Work will start late April
2009 and will be finished in 2010.
macmon architects designed the unique £3m purpose built facility
which will cater for up to 110 people providing structured day care, day
respite, a specialist eight place severe autistic spectrum unit and a
eight place behavioural therapy centre.
The Centre will form the flagship for a range of important new services
for people with disabilities, their carers and local communities. The
internal and external design will reflect a bold, positive and inclusive
vision of disability. It will also demonstrate the most up to date and
carefully developed thinking about designing and building for people with
severe learning disabilities, challenging behaviours and sensory impairments.
