Abstract
The development site is situated on the South East corner of Edenbridge in Kent , approximately 20 km from London in the South East of the United Kingdom.
The development provides independent living for young adults with Learning Difficulties and Mental and Physical Disabilities so that they can live a sustainable and self
–sufficient life. The ecological and renewable energy technologies within the buildings provides a way that helps the residents achieve this goal: namely by the reduction of fuel poverty. The facilities provided within the development also encourage this sustainable life-style because here is an emphasis on workshop provision and community interaction by the inclusion of a café and retails area that is open to the public. The crafts and food that are made within the development can be sold to the Edenbridge public and thus forms a avenue for income for the residents.
