Kent gets new housing scheme for disabled
mcch society ltd. - which supports people with learning disabilities, autism or mental health - will open a new housing scheme in Kent, UK which is designed to improve the lives of people with learning disabilities.
Featuring five state-of-the-art self-contained flats at Holly Lodge in Hildenborough, the new scheme has been tailor-made for each tenant and fitted with assistive technology to give them greater independence and safety.
To reduce the risk of damage and harm to tenants, the houses are incorporated with features such as soft impact finishes to curved walls, removable magnetic door handles for kitchen units, and dimmable recessed mood lighting.
Avoiding disruptions to the tenants, all utility access panels have been moved to outside the buildings. The scheme will officially open its doors to the tenants on 17 April 2013.
