Former Allerton church grounds could become supported living facility

Land housing a former church built almost 90 years ago could make way to become a supported living facility in Allerton.

St Bernadette’s Roman Catholic church on Heath Road closed to parishioners in 2015, and almost eight years on, new plans have been submitted to Liverpool Council for consideration. An application by Regenda Homes seeks approval for 11 one-bedroom apartments for people with learning disabilities alongside staff accommodation and communal facilities.

According to documents made public by the city council ahead of its planning committee meeting next week, the proposed new building would stand two-storeys high. A communal lounge would be situated on the lower floor alongside communal rooms, with the remaining six flats on the first floor next to an additional assisted bathroom.
