Invitation to view proposals to develop land at Bessborough Road聽on the Alton Estate
Wandsworth Council invites you to view proposals to developland at Bessborough Road on the Alton Estate, as part of the Homes for Wandsworth programme.
Our proposals present a unique opportunity to provide eight much-needed specialist homes for people with learning disabilities within a high-quality sustainable scheme, which will help to meet the needs of our residents now and for generations to come. Our proposals will also deliver high-quality new landscaping, enhanced play space, and improvements for wheelchair/pushchair access.
As you may be aware, we held our first stage of consultation in November 2022, to share our initial ideas to develop land at Bessborough Road. The feedback received has helped inform and shape our proposals, which we are keen to share with the local community and stakeholders to obtain feedback to help finalise our plans.
We are holding the following consultation events and hope you will be able to join us to find out more about our proposals.

Thursday 25 May 2023 from 3pm to 7pm
