Charity plans to turn nursery into housing

An Island charity's applied for planning permission to turn a children's nursery it ran back into a home.

The Children's Centre announced it would close its nurseries earlier this year, saying it would concentrate on other areas.

Now, the organisation has applied for planning permission to split up a building on Woodbourne Road and return the property to its original residential use.

In its application it says the house next door to its headquarters would be fenced off and separated from the charity once the work is complete.
