Helene Collie-Van De Langenberg’s proposal would see an eight-bed holiday let at 24 Esplanade Gardens, Scarborough be converted into a six-bed care facility.

The London-based company was incorporated in February of this year, according to Companies House. The company said it was “committed to providing a high-standard care unit designed to accommodate individuals in need of social living support”. It added: “Our facility offers a safe, comfortable, and supportive environment where residents can thrive.
