What an interesting 45 minutes with the guys from Bailey Capital this morning. As people will have seen in my intro to the group, my ultimate outcome in property is to buy or build 'Douglas Hostel' (working title), whereby we can get people off the streets of Norwich, and areas of Norfolk. Supported Living makes the most sense to us, to be utilising in our property journey, in order to make those connections to the people we'll need for support to do this, when we're able to. I'm sure we all realise this is not a straightforward thing to simply 'jump into', but it was interesting to hear the challenges of making those initial contacts with the local authorities, and building the trust that's required to be able to work closely with them, to deliver this type of provision. Thanks to Chris for organising and arranging todays call. And to Will Bailey, John Parsons and Richard Haines, for your knowledge, advice and guidance in this strategy.
