The Oxford Times reports:
A Christian nursing home is poised to mount a fundraising drive to build a £4m care home after buying a development site near the centre of Banbury.
Green Pastures said its 30-place home in Hawthorn Road – built 20 years ago after a fundraising appeal by the Banbury Baptist Church congregation – was full with a waiting list.
Manager John Langridge said: “Our residents are more dependent now than they used to be and we need better and more up-to-date facilities.”
The new home in Bath Road, formerly the site of a sheltered housing development, will be almost twice the size of the existing home and could open in about two years.
The charity has not yet decided what will happen to the existing home.
