“Proposed Closure BBC Scotland Costume & Prop Store”

Cairn is very concerned about the proposed closure of the BBC Scotland Costume & Prop Store in Dumbarton due to the sale of the BBC Dumbarton Studio Complex earlier this year. At a time when more filming is taking place in Scotland we cannot lose this vital resource. This short-sighted decision is most certainly not in line with the BBC’s pledge of continued investment in Scotland and would most definitely impact on our members & our industry in general. Cairn urges the BBC to pause and consider the optics & the options. Find the Costume & Props Store a new home. It was housed in North Glasgow for 25 years before a move to Dumbarton in 2016. Investment not erosion. Our industry must thrive, not merely struggle to survive. There is an open letter to the BBC already signed by industry and non-industry people who understand the significance of this asset and why it should not be closed. Please show your support by signing. Stand together.
