Planning officers granted listed building consent on Thursday, October 5, for a number of alterations to be made to the Joint Dementia Initiative (JDI) service located in Arnotdale, 31 Camelon Road Falkirk.
The building will now get a new front entrance and a reception area for the day centre and offices, which were originally an outhouse belonging to Arnotdale House, a grade B listed building, where the charity Cyrenians used to run a cafer.

Hide AdPlanning documents show the aim is to create “an internal reception area that can be accessed immediately from the outside without the need to navigate corridors, which in itself can be seen as a positive improvement.”
The proposed new reception would be closer to existing disabled parking facilities and would complement the principal entrance for Arnotdale House.
