Kent County Council and the NHS are jointly developing multi agency assessment, development and resource centres for disabled children, young people and their carers.
The three centres are in Ashford, Thanet and Swale.
Each two-storey centre will be built on land previously occupied, annexed to or within the grounds of local schools.
Ashford’s facilities are being constructed on a metal grillage as it is situated on an Environment Agency designated flood plain. An archaeological watching brief and investigation has been carried out at Ashford by Archaeology South Eastern to ensure preservation of any artefacts discovered.
Work has started on site and all three projects will be completed by spring 2012.Â
