Southend-on-Sea YMCA
Derelict stables turned into an award-winning Eco Hub, Essex.
Award Winning Sustainable Eco Hub Refurbishment in Southend
JSP Building Services is proud to have delivered the complete transformation of the dilapidated St Johns Stables into a state-of-the-art, two-storey Eco Hub for Southend-on-Sea YMCA. Working in close collaboration with Artillery Architects and Design, our expert team resurrected a derelict building into a vibrant, environmentally friendly facility dedicated to fostering young entrepreneurs. Completed within a challenging twelve-week programme, this highly successful project achieved a BREEAM Very Good rating and was honoured with the prestigious Southend-on-Sea Borough Council Annual Design Award.
Historic Restoration and Structural Upgrades
We carefully restored the structural integrity of the dilapidated stables, successfully transforming a neglected heritage building into a safe, modern, and highly functional two-storey space.
Collaborative Design and BREEAM Success
Working alongside Artillery Architects and Design, we carefully selected sustainable materials and systems to achieve a BREEAM Very Good rating, representing a significant environmental milestone for our team.
Rapid Twelve Week Delivery
Despite the complex structural and environmental requirements of the brief, our efficient project management team executed the entire refurbishment on schedule within twelve weeks.
Award Winning Excellence
The exceptional standard of craftsmanship and teamwork on this project was officially recognised with the Southend-on-Sea Borough Council Annual Design Award.
Fostering the Next Generation of Entrepreneurs
This innovative Eco Hub was specifically designed to provide young people with the modern resources, facilities, and inspiring environments they need to succeed in business. By salvaging a historic, neglected asset and repurposing it into a hub of local enterprise, we have helped create a lasting community legacy that will serve Southend-on-Sea YMCA and the local area for many years to come.
A Partnership Built on Commitment and Trust
The success of the St Johns Stables project is a direct result of the strong working relationship and shared commitment between JSP, the architects, and the client. This collaborative spirit was warmly praised by Ron, the Chair of Southend YMCA, who highlighted the absolute delight of the board at seeing a sad, derelict building rise to become an environmentally friendly, functional space through outstanding professionalism.
