JBD ready to welcome tenants to £6.7m Bushey development

Jewish Blind & Disabled has launched the applications process for its latest £6.7 million development in Bushey Heath, which will open in spring.

Building work is almost complete on the Dyna and Fala Weinstock Wing, adjacent to JBD’s existing Cecil Rosen Court building. It will be the charity’s eighth development across London, Hertfordshire and Essex and JBD currently has 360 tenants aged from 18 upwards with an array of physical and visual disabilities.

The new block will incorporate 15 one-bedroom apartments, four two-bedroom apartments, a roof terrace and state-of-the-art communal areas.

JBD chief executive Hazel Kaye said: “We are so aware of how living in unsuitable accommodation can make life very difficult life for people who have had to face a diagnosis of disability or vision impairment.
