Detail
We have been appointed to develop a £14M health, wellbeing and community development in Burnley. The site is currently derelict Hospital land but will be transformed into new apartments, with 90 units of extra-care accommodation and an inclusive community hub.
The ambitious development is a first for Burnley; aiming to provide specialist assisted-living accommodation in a neighbourhood setting where health, support services and community activities can come together to improve people’s quality of life and reduce social isolation. Currently there are no dedicated extra-care Schemes in the town.
Plans for the new development will be formally submitted to Burnley Borough Council early in 2021. The project will generate a number of local jobs and apprenticeships over the next few years, as the work takes shape.
