A vacant shop unit in Aberdeen city centre might soon be revived as a pilates studio.

Physiotherapy assistant Emily Robbie has submitted proposals to the Aberdeen City Council to convert the location on Chapel Street.

The west end unit previously operated as a Marie Curie charity shop but has been lying empty for a number of years.

The teacher has been conducting pilates sessions for almost a year after coming across the workout while in lockdown.

Speaking to the P&J last year, she said: “It is to be anticipated that those attending the studio will make use of local cafes and restaurants before and/or after my classes.

“I see this as an opportunity for me to make some contribution to the rejuvenation of Union Street and surrounding areas.”
