Work Starts on Abbeyfield Retirement Home
WORK has begun on the old Half Moon House in the High Street, Clare to convert it into much needed supported housing for the elderly. The property will provide accommodation for 11 single people and one couple.
The scheme has been set up by a partnership between St Edmundsbury Borough Council, The Abbeyfield Society and the Clare Liaison and Support Project (CLASP). A need for more suitable accommodation for older people in Clare was identified and the St Edmundsbury Borough Council’s Social Housing Grant has provided a £920,000 award towards the total cost of the work expected to be £1.3 million. It is due to be completed in May next year.
