Click here for map Click here for Craigleith Extra Care Scheme Information. - This was made possible with the help of a grant of £2.15 million from the Governments Homes and Community Agency (HCA), BHSE own resources, a bank loan and a successful planning application made to Bournemouth Council that was granted number 7-2009-8241-U dated 3.8.09.
- There is signage on site to give further information and point passers by to the BHSE web site and telephone number.
- BHSE have the right to make the final determination as to who is allocated and will look to maintain its own waiting and transfer list in the hopefully rare circumstances when there are insufficient applicants agreed by the panel to fill vacancies in a timely manner. It is anticipated that there will be a dedicated care and support team based from the reception office on site from 7am to 11pm 7 days a week and there will be overnight emergency sleep in cover all provided by a contractor appointed by the council for that purpose. BHSE will continue to provide housing management and maintenance for the building and have a dedicated office for that on site for when staff visit.
- Rents will be charged weekly in advance every week. The initial rents for the first lettings of all apartments will be set at around £82.33p per week (plus service charge and support charge) for the 1 bedroom 2 person apartments and £93.43 per week (plus service and support charge) for the 2 bedroom 3 person apartments. Any apartments that are subsequently re-let after that time will have the rents charged at the prevailing government regulated rents and the additional service and support charge in force at that time.
