DWA Architects is helping to breath new life into a vacant care home site that will see it transformed and extended into a modern 86-bedroom care facility.
Work is now fully underway on the Candle Court site, located in Cricklewood, North West London, and it’s hoped to be fully completed by next summer. It is owned and will be operated by TLC Care, which also has award-winning care homes in the South East.
The proposals are to completely reconfigure the existing building to bring it up to modern care standards and massively improve the communal facilities as well as creating a significant extension at the back of the site.
David Ward, managing director of York-based DWA Architects, says: “This has been a very interesting project to bring this old care home back into use and to ensure it is up to modern standards. We have been able to reconfigure the whole building so it will suit residents’ needs when it is completed.”
