______
Last week, Park House experienced an unexpected power outage. As a precaution, we relocated residents to temporary accommodation while we investigated and worked to resolve the issue.
Although we initially expected this to be a short-term arrangement, circumstances beyond our control mean that residents will now remain in alternative accommodation until at least 13 May.
We understand this may be unsettling, and we sincerely appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding during this time. To help keep you informed, we have developed a set of FAQs and will continue to provide regular updates as more information becomes available.
