Change of use of the ground and first floor premises from Class E to Class F1 to allow BeyondAutism to use the site for specialist Post-19 educational provision for autistic young adults aged 19???25, alongside associated administrative, head office and outreach functions. The proposal would utilise the existing building layout and external areas for educational, life skills, vocational and community-based learning activities, with no structural alterations proposed. The basement is excluded from the application and would remain in separate use.
