A specialist care facility for adults with autism is set to open in a residential property in the Preston suburbs.It will provide round-the-clock support for eight people, but the firm behind the scheme says its aim is also to enable residents “to develop their independent living skills in a community setting”.Concert Healthcare Property Holdings Limited told Preston City Council that its plans were supported by commissioners at the Lancashire and South Cumbria Integrated Care Board .
Five of the bedrooms in the main property will be used by residents, while “care apartments” will be created for the three other people who will live there. Those flats will be developed in two existing garages and in an extension that will be built at the rear of the premises once an existing conservatory has been demolished.
Two objections were lodged to the plans, with one reason being a claim that there was”no justification” for the proposed use within a residential area.
