As you can see from the first photo the condition of the parking spaces (before the work started) were very poor. The second photo shows work in progress to resurface this part of Drymen Square.

Local charity Stirling Community Enterprise (SCE) were awarded the contract to carry out repair works by DCDT. SCE are committed to supporting the people facing barriers to employment to progress in life. They achieve this through person centred training, work experience and supported employment.

SCE deliver a range of high quality construction and landscaping services throughout Central Scotland through their Social Enterprise arm Stirling Commercial Contracts. All profits generated through these works are reinvested I the pursuit of SCEs charitable objectives.

If you are out of work, in need of support to access training or keen to start a career in construction checkout their website stirlingcommunityenterprise.co.uk or say hello to a member of the team when they are on site.

Phase one of the Square repairs is now complete, DCDT has now launched an appeal to raise funds to carry out repairs and resurfacing of all the remaining paths and roads around the Square. If you would like to donate, or help us raise funds for the remaining areas you can do so through the Square Appeal page.
