St James and St Saviours

The projects  in South Croydon,  involved the demolition of existing and the erection of 2 three storey buildings incorporating accommodation in the roof-space and comprising bedrooms and studio units. These buildings provide supported housing for young homeless persons needing 24 hour assistance. 

The project was delivered to agreed time and budget and achieved code level 3, incorporating photovoltaic panels, deep bore soak a way, whole house heat recovery and used responsible resourced materials. The designs are of a high quality, particularly in terms of their amenity and the emphasis on minimising energy use.    

South London YMCA’s main work is with homeless young people, providing them with housing, support and guidance to empower them towards independent living and to building a better life.
