THREE students from the University of Teesside, who designed an MP's office building, have been presented with cash prizes.

Alison Hornby, David Johnson and Alan Witcher undertook the project at the Redcar Station Business Centre, where the town's MP Vera Baird has an office.

The station is a Grade II listed building, which is managed by the Redcar and Cleveland Development Agency.

The work was part of the students' course.

Mrs Baird said: "The students have produced outstanding work and their proposals for modernising the business centre contain many innovative ideas and yet retain the beautiful character of the original features of the mall area of Redcar Station.

"Redcar Station Business Centre is an ideal location for small businesses in the town.

"The centre staff are very helpful and the assistance they provide when you first start your business is absolutely invaluable.
