Description

Identity Consult was the Project Manager for a prestigious youth facility delivered on behalf of Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council. TunedIn!@MyPlace was completed in September 2012 and is a world class arts and media venue for the young people of the borough, with facilities such as a recording studio, performance space, dance studio and film making facilities.

In addition to undertaking traditional Project Management duties, Identity Consult took full responsibility for the preparation and submission of the capital delivery bid to the BIG Lottery Fund and Department for Education, successfully securing the £4.94m required to deliver the BREEAM Excellent scheme.

The building is located on the sea front at Redcar and its striking design, which is based on the concept of a sea shell, emerged from consultation with the young people who are now its users.
