Thomasons starts second project for Anchor Trust

Having completed our first retirement living project for Anchor Trust in the summer of 2017, Thomasons is set to start work on another, with the development of 75 assisted living apartments in the centre of Kings Hill in Kent, alongside Architects Tooley & Foster.

Projects of this nature require considerable forward planning. While residents’ current mobility needs must be taken into consideration, their future requirements also need to be planned for. This includes how they find their way around, access different parts of the development and make full use of the facilities as their needs change.

The contemporary design includes a large double height atrium surrounded by communal facilities and many of the apartments feature glass balconies that overlook the landscaped gardens. Commenting on the project, Director Steve McSorley says: “This is the fourth scheme that we’ve worked on with Anchor. It’s a pleasure to be part of such a successful delivery team for them and we look forward to seeing the development when it’s complete.
