A Kirkcaldy care home has asked Fife Council for the green light to allow an expansion and internal access ramps at its facility.
The Abbeyfield Kirkcaldy Society on Meldrum Road wants permission to carry out the work which would create a bedroom and assisted bathroom. Internal reshuffling would also make space for a second bedroom.
The care home currently has 29 rooms classed as sheltered housing. It gives residents their own private space with carer on hand to support as needed. The society also operates a day centre for elderly local residents. The council has already approved a laundry building and access ramp previously.Cou ncillors will review the application and make a decision in due course.
