The proposed solution is a phased development of landscaping which provides level access to each property and at the same time a community space with raised planting beds, seating, trees, art / water features and importantly developed SUDS system to help alleviate current site issues of water run-off and ponding.

Level access to all property without the need for a ramp would ensure that adaptations are made before residents need a referral or lengthy stay in hospital. This way residents can be more independent and stay at home longer – all principles which underpin the Scottish Government’s approach to keeping people at home longer and person centered.
