Proposal

Change of use from a dwelling (C3 use) to a children's care home (C2 use), providing full-time residential care and accommodation for a maximum of one child (aged 8-17 years). Care and supervision will be provided 24 hours a day, seven days a week, by a small team of suitably qualified, non-resident staff working on a rota basis. The property will operate as the child's principal home, retaining its existing domestic layout, residential character and appearance. No building works, extensions, external alterations, machinery installations or changes to the existing access and parking arrangements are proposed. The proposed use will operate continuously, with staffing arrangements and shift changes varying according to the individual care requirements of the child. Please read the accompanying Statement of Purpose in conjunction with the Planning Statement, which provide further details of the proposed operation, care arrangements and planning considerations.
