2021
The Old Fire Station Community Centre is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation managed by a board of trustees. The building is owned by Hackney Council, and is home to a number of charities and social enterprises.
In need of urgent repairs and refurbishment as well as improved wheelchair access, Deft.Space led a team of consultants to deliver services covering RIBA Stage 1 and 2. The design team’s output supported future rounds of funding applications to enable the full refurbishment of the building. A co-design workshop that included the board of trustees, tenants, office license holders and hirers was held via a video conferencing software and an online visual collaboration platform to identify the needs and aspirations for the building.
