Another completed accommodation block
Bathroom extensions, creating ensuites for each accommodation block
Termite proof, aluminium windows
New en-suite bathrooms in all accommodation blocks
Ceiling fans and low energy lighting
A far cry from the bat/rat infested accommodation blocks of old!
The BHA provides furniture made locally for every completed home
Happy family, outside Desborough House
Our nurses can now relax in decent homes!
What still needs to be done:
Staff still live in terrible conditions…
Delapidated toilet blocks
We don’t believe anybody should live in such conditions
Subject to funding, we would like to renovate these homes too
This helps us retain staff
