The centre will accommodate up to two mothers/parents and two children, with care provided by two staff members. The purpose of the scheme is to offer families an environment that closely resembles a traditional family home, with standard everyday facilities, while providing an element of care and supervision. Two staff members will be on-site at all times, sharing the communal facilities with the families. Shift patterns will be from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm and from 8:00 pm to 8:00 am. The existing property has the layout, facilities, and services typical of a standard residential dwelling. The proposed use will not alter the nature of the property, and the external appearance of the building will remain unchanged. This proposed use will bring a long-vacant property back into effective use and provide a valuable service to the community.
