Leeds Studio Co-op has applied for change of use permission for a mobile recording studio at the former Spink and Thackray bookbinders on Back Broomfield Crescent Headingley. The company, which according to its website sets up soundproof workspaces for lease and hire, mainly for musicians, writes that a newly fitted mobile studio would complement its current space.
It was awarded a £50,000 grant of public money and a £100,000 loan from the Key Fund - which was ring fenced for the ground floor studios only.
