Their work, in turn, touches the lives of thousands of people across Scotland and beyond.
Wasps’ activities support the regeneration of communities across Scotland. They redevelop redundant, historic buildings and convert them into essential facilities for artists and creative industries, improving the heritage and economy of the communities in which they are based.

The majority of the team is based at the Head Office at The Briggait in Glasgow, but they also have smaller satellite offices in Edinburgh, Perth and Inverness to manage key properties.
The organisation is overseen by the Wasps Board, which consists of 15 Trustees/Directors with members drawn from a variety of backgrounds, including property, the arts and finance.
