🏥✨ BIG NEWS ON THE WHITE LION PROJECT ✨🏥
After a long journey, we’ve finally received planning approval for our 13-bed care home project 🙌
This development will provide accommodation for young men dealing with mental health challenges, and we genuinely couldn’t be more excited about what this project will become.
The journey started back in August 2024 when we purchased a very run-down former pub with plans to convert it into a 15-bed HMO.
Planning was approved and we started works on site:
🏗️ Structural works
🏠 New roof
⚡ Exterior upgrades
But while progressing the project, we kept asking ourselves:
“Is there a better long-term use for this building?”
That’s when we connected with a care provider and started exploring a completely different direction.
The more conversations we had, the clearer it became:
This was the better solution.
So we paused the works, redesigned the scheme, and submitted a brand new planning application for a 13-bed care home.
And just a few days ago… it was officially approved ✅
We’re absolutely buzzing and can’t wait to start the next stage of development and bring this project to life.
