Barclay Gardens, Donnington Telford
 
  • A joint venture between Bromford Carinthia Housing Association, Coverage Care (Shropshire) Ltd and Telford and Wrekin Council to create the core building of a care village
  • Phase 1 was the demolition of a day centre and its replacement by a block of 16 flats. These were designed as being self-contained but configured initially as shared bed sit accommodation to allow residents of the existing blocks of bed sit flats
  • These were replaced with a two storey building designed around a central courtyard accommodating a 40 bed residential care home, 20 of which were designed as an EMI unit, plus a further 8 self-contained sheltered flats. The residential accommodation was complemented by dining rooms, catering kitchen, lounges, activity rooms and other accommodation
  • The project was constructed by Jessup Brothers Ltd and completed in March 2003
