Accommodation grants bolster independent living

The Quaker Housing Trust has awarded two grants

The Quaker Housing Trust (QHT) has awarded grants to two projects providing accommodation for older people.

Roddam Dene House in Wooler, Northumberland, will provide four flats for the over-fifty-fives. The former manse has been converted into homes that will allow residents to continue to live independently, close to shops and services. QHT awarded the Glendale Gateway Trust project a £20,000 grant and provided a £70,000 interest-free loan.
