We were lucky to capture stunning drone footage of the newly opened £23 million Lincoln Community Diagnostic Centre, a facility designed to transform patient access to vital tests and screenings. Offering advanced MRI, CT, ultrasound, X-ray, and echocardiogram services, as well as essential physiological testing like blood tests, ECGs, spirometry, and FeNO testing, the centre is set to improve diagnostic efficiency and patient care across the region.

We are excited to see as many as a third of the apartments at Woodberry Down are now occupied. We have now been involved in multiple phases of the large scale residential project, which is one of the largest estate regeneration schemes in Europe. Our multidisciplinary team of MEP design experts continue to the development as it becomes an inspiring exemplar of sustainability within the residential sector.

As part of the Low Carbon Transition Plan, DSSR undertook an analysis to provide options for the future introduction of Low Carbon Technologies, accounting for the changing carbon factors associated with different fuel sources. In addition to the dwelling SAP assessment, and non-domestic SBEM calculations required for Approved Document Part L and London Plan compliance, we also undertook CIBSE TM52 Thermal comfort analysis for all Phase 3 flats.

Here are some drone footage of the fully operational Skegness CDC! 🏥❄️

This new facility provides vital diagnostic services previously unavailable locally, including CT, MRI, echocardiograms, and dental X-rays—bringing convenient, timely care closer to home. It also offers a chemotherapy service, significantly reducing the need for patients to travel for treatment.

This remarkable project marks a significant achievement for the NHS and the Skegness community. We’re proud to have contributed to such an impactful development, now providing essential healthcare services that enhance access and improve the well-being of residents in the area.

Let it always be said of DSSR that we know how to keep Christmas well.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year, and the DSSR team across the UK knows how to celebrate! 🎄 Over the Christmas break, our offices were filled with festive cheer as our amazing colleagues from all our offices – Glasgow, Harrogate, London, Manchester, and everywhere in between – have been enjoying their Christmas nights out!

From glitzy dinners to cosy pub gatherings, there’s been laughter, festive jumpers, maybe a slightly dodgy Santa hat or two, and of course, plenty of Christmas spirit. It’s been fantastic to see everyone letting their hair down and enjoying some well-deserved fun outside the office.

A huge thank you to everyone at DSSR for another incredible year of hard work and dedication. These celebrations are a perfect reminder of what a fantastic team we have. Cheers to making memories and strengthening those bonds that make DSSR such a great place to work!

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from everyone at DSSR! 🎅🥂

Award Win at the Glasgow Institute of Architects Awards 2024

It’s always a great moment to see a project win an award. Last night, the St Andrew’s Drive Affordable Housing scheme won in the Large Residential award category at the Glasgow Institute of Architects Awards 2024.

“St Andrews Drive phases 2 and 3 are the concluding phases of a landscape-led approach to creating a development driven by the principles of NPF4. The project’s initial strategy was to integrate a mixed-tenure social and affordable housing development into the adjacent Pollokshields West conservation area.

“Preserving existing trees was a key objective whilst providing a series of urban villas set in a series of gardens that provide a holistic living environment for its residents. The project seeks to extend the neighbourhood’s sense of place into the new masterplan and knit the community together.”
