Proposal

To operate a children's home for up to one child cared for by a team of two staff and an OfSTED Registered Manager. There is no material change of the building, layout or the land. The current category of the property is a C3 dwelling. The change of use to operate as a Children's Home does not materially change the use of the land and building from that which would be used by a family under a C3 dwelling.
