About

Scottish Prison Service awarded a contract to Ogilvie Construction for the design and build of a Community Custody Unit (CCU) in Hilltown, Dundee, valued at AUD 7,822,825.66.

The CCU is part of Scotland's new approach to supporting female offenders in custody, announced in June 2015, which includes the creation of a Women's National Facility at HMP Cornton Vale and five CCUs across Scotland.

The Hilltown CCU is one of the first two CCUs, alongside Maryhill in Glasgow, and is designed to take account of gender and potential trauma to encourage transformational change.
