Construction has officially begun on a new extra care housing scheme in Leeds, designed to foster independent living for older residents. The innovative Middlecross development, located in Armley, will provide 65 modern, energy-efficient apartments tailored specifically for residents aged 55 and older who require additional care and support. Leeds City Council is spearheading this project as part of its Council Housing Growth Programme (CHGP), aimed at addressing the shortage of extra care housing across the city.
