Bristol Together has recently completed its largest development project to date.

A former office building on the main high street in Shirehampton, the property was purchased as a two-story building with the ground floor being a vacant retail premises and the first floor laid out as offices, in a semi-derelict state.

The project involved stripping out the first floor and adding a completely new second floor to the building.   Ten 2-bedroom apartments were created, each with kitchen-diner and bathrooms.  Two have balconies.

The type of work needed to complete the property allowed for a wide range of skills to be learned and utilised over the 12-month duration of the project.

This allowed 6 employees with offending background to commence work with Bristol Together, two of whom have moved on to subsequent employment elsewhere.  The remaining 4 were moved on to further Bristol Together projects.

All 10 apartments have been sold to private buyers.
