A housing association has opened more than 20 new apartments on the site of a former Carlton pub to provide accommodation for groups including young people at risk of homelessness. The Nottingham Community Housing Association (NCHA) has officially launched the new flats for some of society's most vulnerable.
Ten of the new apartments will be let to people between the ages of 16 and 21 who are experiencing, or who are at risk of, homelessness. The other thirteen flats will be for adults living with a learning disability, mental health condition, physical disability or autism.
Gemma DeBrito, the Assistant Director of Homes and Wellbeing for NCHA, said: "The building and self-contained flats have been designed for purpose, to best suit the people that will be living and receiving support there. Sensitively designed, trauma-informed spaces impact our wellbeing.
