Proposals for the relocation of Social Bite’s Granton village to a new location on the Granton Waterfront have moved a step closer after the proposals were unanimously approved by Councillors.
This will mean the village, in its new location, can continue to support up to 16 residents who have experienced homelessness, with the aim of breaking the cycle by providing round-the-clock support and reintegration into community living.
As part of the relocation, the new site includes a plot for community gardening, with 50% of the site dedicated for this purpose. Alongside the use of open space for community purposes the proposals will also provide communal areas which will allow residents to cook, gather, and relax.
