There are five one-bed flats and four two bed bungalows to enable couples to stay together rather than be separated. In the case of a joint application, the applicant referred for the service must be over 55 and have significant care needs; their care needs must be met by a care package provided by Blackburn with Darwen Boruogh Council. The flats/bungalows are self contained and unfurnished, but they are supplied with a fridge/cooler box, which is paid for through the service charge.
