Join us for an exclusive site visit to HMP Glasgow, a landmark project set to replace the 143-year-old HMP Barlinnie. Funded by the Scottish Government and delivered by Kier Construction, this state-of-the-art facility aims to enhance rehabilitation efforts and improve staff working conditions.

What to Expect:

  • Project Presentation: Gain insights from Kier Construction representatives on the project's scope, design, and community impact.
  • Guided Site Tour: A short presentation then explore the 54-acre brownfield site undergoing transformation into a modern correctional facility.
  • Networking Opportunities: Connect with professionals from the construction and justice sectors.

Important Information:

  • PPE Requirements: Attendees must bring their own safety boots with protective toecaps and midsoles. Other mandatory PPE, including hard hats, safety glasses, gloves, and hi-vis jackets, will be provided on-site.

This event offers a unique opportunity to witness firsthand the development of a facility that will play a crucial role in Scotland's justice system. Spaces are limited, so early registration is advised.
