Plans for 'UK’s first' purpose built apartments for LGBT+ older people take next step

Proposals to build 100 apartments as part of the UK’s first purpose built LGBT+ older person’s housing scheme in south Manchester have taken the next step.

The Extra Care scheme on Russell Road in Whalley Range, situated on the site of the former Spire Hospital, has been in development since 2017.

Anchor Hanover, England’s largest not-for-profit provider of housing and care for older people, is spearheading the project in partnership with Manchester City Council and LGBT Foundation.
