Spring Gardens (Ennersdale Road)
Spring Gardens is a radical new concept in homeless provision, offering a variety of types of accomodation for 115 residents located in buildings arranged around a beautiful garden with existing mature trees.
A 2-storey linear building along the eastern garden edge has reception areas, double-height arcaded day rooms and training areas all with magnificent views into the garden, together with 40 en-suite rooms each with its own south facing courtyard.
A C-shaped building forming the other 3 sides of the garden provides 21 studio flats for residents being encouraged by staff to progress towards independent living. A further 54 rooms are located in the existing Garden House.
The scheme has a light, open and airy feel, very high quality residential accommodation and a delightful working envrionment for staff.
A later phase has also been developed in a series of Garden Pavillions which provide additional training areas.
