The building on Harrogate's Haywra Street.

North Yorkshire Council has approved plans for a former office block in Harrogate to be converted into care accommodation.

UBU Northern Life Care Limited, which is based in Harrogate, tabled the proposal for the offices on Haywra Street near to the town centre.

The plan will see the building converted into six flats for community care purposes.

A two-storey extension at the rear of the property will be converted into a facility for staff to use in order to provide 24 hour support to residents.

In documents submitted to the council, the developer said the accommodation was require because of rising demand for care.

It said:

“The current office facilities have evolved during the covid crisis with reduced requirement for fixed base offices to run the company, but with an increased demand and lack of supply of care accommodation in the area due to the general cost of properties suitable for use.”
