Care home proposal would bring 100 jobs to Lincolnshire.
Barchester Homes and Frontier Retail have submitted a proposal to West Lindsey District Council to build a residential care home in Burton Waters near Lincoln for the elderly and people with dementia. If the local authority gives the go ahead, it is expected that the home will create in the region of 100 jobs.
A spokesperson for the care company stated that the setting would be an ideal location for its clients and would provide exceptional scenery for all to enjoy. If approved, the 60 bed care home would provide 24/7 residential and nursing care as well as facilities to help people with dementia to stay as active and independent for as long as possible. The plan would also include a car park and hairdressing and laundry units on the site.
The company hopes that the building work on the home could start in the late spring or early summer of 2013.
The chief executive of Lincolnshire Chamber of Commerce expressed delight at the proposal, stating that the creation of new jobs during the current economic climate would be good news for the area. The proposal is being regarded as a vote of confidence in Lincolnshire.
