Home / Our PROJECTS
theSpace Scotland continues to deliver innovative projects across East Lothian, combining skateboarding, cycling, creativity, and community engagement:
Today, that dream is alive at Dunbear Point in Dunbar. After engaging the community in July 2025 consultations, we crafted detailed RIBA plans, raised £98k through grants and a 2025 Crowdfunder, and submitted our full planning application Jan 2026. We’re gearing up for a £15m capital raise to build our landmark facility in Dunbar.
theMart in East Linton is a pop-up skatepark and creative hub, offering beginner and adult skateboarding sessions, girls’ and LGBTQ+ skate sessions, and a range of creative workshops. Offering a safe, inclusive space powered by youth for the whole community.
We are leading the design and project management for a new outdoor skatepark in Dunbar, scheduled to open in 2026. Designed in consultation with young people, it will provide permanent infrastructure for skateboarding, creativity, and social connection.
At theSpace, we put young people at the heart of music and creativity. From electrifying gigs to hands-on music projects, we give local youth the space, support, and opportunities to create, perform, and shine.
The Dunbar Pump Track is a dynamic space for cycling, skill-building, and fun. We run a variety of activities for young people and the community, including bike maintenance workshops, inclusive riding sessions, and skill development programmes.
In 2011 we leased an old factory in North Berwick and launched theSpace NB, our first landmark multi-activity youth centre. Over the next five years, theSpace NB became a buzzing hub featuring an indoor skatepark, music and arts rooms, a café with soft play, and mentoring and skill-building opportunities for young people.
