West Lothian Council leader Lawrence Fitzpatrick was given a tour of a new housing site aimed at enabling people to live independently.
Councillor Fitzpatrick joined Wheatley chief executive Steven Henderson and Wheatley chair Jo Armstrong for a tour of the housing group’s Almondvale Court in Livingston.
The 146 homes, built in partnership with West Lothian Council, are an example of Wheatley’s new-build, housing and care teams working together to provide life-changing services to customers.
Almondvale Court includes 92 mainstream homes for Wheatley Homes East, a mix of one, two and three-bedroom flats and 45 Livingwell homes, the Group’s service – provided by Wheatley Care – to support older tenants to live in their own homes for longer.
He said: “Increasing the amount of social housing and enabling people to live independently are two key aims for West Lothian Council.”
