Show more "The council is partnering with private developer E5 Living to create a new extra care plus scheme in the town. When built, it will provide rented accommodation for people who require a higher level of social care support to maintain their independence as long as possible, including people with dementia.The development in Moor Street will come at no cost to the council and allow people aged 65 and over to live independently with the added benefit of round the clock care and support available.
E5, which already owns the land for the site and has existing planning permission for an apartment complex, will fund the cost of the build with Dudley Council taking on a long-term lease agreement for the building. The scheme pilots a brand-new model devised by E5 to allow local authorities to build housing for social care with no capital outlay and within existing housing budgets.
The council is about to tender for a housing provider, which would sub-lease the building from the council and deliver the scheme to the tenants. The housing provider would be responsible for paying the yearly rent and taking over any liability.
The new development will include 100 self-contained apartments as well as communal areas and facilities. The council will reserve 10 apartments to accommodate people who need short-term care and support." Show less
