01/02/2023 - Relocation of Newcastle Specialist Day Opportunities to Brackenberry site ref: 3447    Recommendations Approved

The recommendation is to refurbish and modernise the Brackenberry building and relocate the service to this site. The Brackenberry site offers a much better building for the service in terms of layout, flexibility, adaptability, and size in comparison to Wilmott Drive. Capital works would be funded using the Covid Outbreak Management Fund, as approved by Cabinet on the 19th of October 2022. The net present value of refurbishment and relocation would be £54,970 over a 15-year period. It would save the Council approximately £500,000 revenue costs in 2023/24 and around £150,000 annually thereafter. It would release the Wilmot Drive site for sale, which would realise at least £675,000 in capital receipts.

Feedback from both staff and carers about the proposed relocation was unanimously positive with no challenge.
