Disused Sunderland church to be demolished to make way for homes for vulnerable residents

A disused Sunderland church which currently stands derelict will be demolished to make way for a cluster of wellbeing homes.

Six new high-quality bungalows will be built in Ryhope on the site of St Cuthbert’s Methodist Church and have been designed for people who require additional support and care. The development will also have two staff hubs for use by adult social care workers on-hand to provide support to residents.

The properties have been designed by Sunderland-based architects and engineering practice, Building Design Northern (BDN) and are aimed at improving the everyday experience of the residents who will live there, meeting their immediate and future needs.
