As part of a Roscrea Lions Club Project in association with Thurles Lions Housing Trust and Tipperary County Council, a contract was recently signed for the refurbishment of a property on the Limerick Road in Roscrea.
After 5 years of planning, No1 Limerick Rd will be renovated into a 2 house development named “Bunnow Lodge”. The original house will be renovated and a new build will replace the original Tyre Centre. Both buildings will be suitable for use by the Disability Agent Avista.
The Housing Trust’s mission is to improve and promote the rights and aspirations of people with intellectual, mental health and/or physical disabilities and others in need or at risk of homelessness, in the greater Thurles and wider County Tipperary areas, by providing and maintaining socially inclusive high quality housing and associated services in a safe and secure environment.
