Work starts on two new wheelchair bungalows
Sunday, 16th December 2001.
The houses are being funded and built through a partnership between the Borough Council and the Papworth Trust.
Two families from the West Suffolk Housing register have already being identified for the two three-bedroomed bungalows in Burton End.
Cll Derek Redhead, speaking at the site on Friday where he laid the first brick said: “There is a shortage of purpose built properties of this type so these new bungalows will be a valuable asset to the community.”
Chair of the Papworth Trust, Hugh Duberly added: “This is a good way to produce standard housing for people with disabilities.”
