A house in suburban South Ribble could be turned into a children’s home for youngsters who would live together “as a family”.Northridge Care Group has launched a bid to create the facility in a property in Walton-le-Dale. Up to three children – aged between eight and 17 – would live in the Selkirk Drive dwelling at any one time.The firm says the children will have “social and emotional needs which can be cared for” in a personalised way within the proposed home.
It also stressed that physical alterations to the dwelling would be restricted to separating an existing study from one of the four bedrooms in the semi-detached property in order to create a fifth sleeping area. “The children effectively living together as a family with on-site support… will attend local education establishments – unless their needs require more specialist education establishments,” the planning statement adds.
It says all visitors to the site will be asked to use the dedicated spaces and claims that the number, over a week, “would remain comparable with those expected for a standard family home”.Sign up below to receive Blog Preston's email newsletter.
