The Trust is involved in a variety of projects, all of which develop in different ways and at varying speeds. We have two main types of projects: GBPT Projects and Partnership/Consultancy Projects. Since 1982, the Trust has delivered 12 major building projects, 40 Options Appraisals (Feasibility Studies) and assisted with significant repair works for 7 buildings. Our work has been recognised by a number of prestigious awards, including the Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland Award for Castlemilk Stables and more recently, our High Commendation for Parkhead School at the Scottish Heritage Angel Awards.

GBPT Projects

For our own projects, we oversee the whole restoration process from start to finish.  This includes producing Options Appraisals (Feasibility Studies) to find a viable end-use for a building, appointing professional consultants such as Architects, fundraising, community and stakeholder consultation and project managing the on-site restoration process. The completed buildings are usually transferred (sold or leased) to other charitable organisations or social enterprises who manage the buildings in the long-term. 

Partnership/Consultancy Projects

We work in partnership and share our skills with a range of other organisations, such as community groups, trusts and housing associations to help enable them to deliver their own projects. We also work on a consultancy basis for others, using our expertise to assist with funding applications, project development and co-ordination and overseeing historic building repairs.

Other Projects

Information coming soon...

​
Most of our projects take a long time to come to fruition due to the complex issues associated with historic buildings and lengthy fundraising process. Unfortunately, some projects do not proceed at all, if for instance a suitable end-user cannot be identified or funding is not available.

“Glasgow Building Preservation Trust’s sheer doggedness in delivering a project that many felt was an impossible dream is a real credit to the professionalism of their staff and the resilience of their Board of Trustees.”
