The building hoping to help revive Dumfries High Street

She said it was a “great feeling” to see the project – which started before Covid – finally completed.

Kathryn said the aim was to help bring the whole area “back to life”.

“A lot of local people don’t come to their High Street any more,” she said.

“We want to create some something that is somewhere where people do want to come and where there is something for them, that brings them here.

“It’s really about the mixture of things that we provide that are not currently being provided in the town centre, especially on the High Street, I think that’s what we’re aiming for.”
