Saltash is able to provide a wide range of examples of successful projects ranging from local community centres, schools and residential homes to individual private dwellings.

The example support our claim to be building for a better quality of like for all our clients.

Damilola Taylor Centre
(Peckham, London SE15)

Named to commemorate the memory of a young victim of violence, the Damiola Taylor Centre offers a wide range of sports and youth training activities for the 11 to 25 year age group. The centre is operated by Southwark Council.

Saltash Enterprises gained the contract for the complete refurbishment and
partial rebuild of an existing building to create a modern multi-functional centre to serve the young of the local community.

The refurbishment programme was funded by Southwark Council supported by charitable donations.

With such a high-profile social project it was imperative that Southwark Council
awarded the contract to a contractor that would not default on any aspect of
performance whilst at the same time provide best value.

Saltash carried out a customised value engineering exercise to provide benefits at major cost areas.

The refurbishment project covered complete redesign and renovation of the
main activity hall, the creation of additional meeting / function rooms, and
new entrance hall foyer, improvements to the disabled persons access facilities and redesign of the building front elevation.

The project was planned to cover a 36 week period and was completed by Saltash on time and within budget.
