Premises under guardianship scheme in Brighton closed.

Premises under guardianship scheme in Brighton closed down without prohibition order after fire safety failings.

A row has broken out about a former care home under a temporary guardianship scheme, whose occupants   were evicted without fire service enforcement action after the premises was found to pose a significant threat to life.
Ron Alalouff reports.

Brighton & Hove City Council terminated the guardianship arrangement with Oaksure Property Protection at Knoll House in Hove last month, with 21 resident guardians having to leave their home. Both parties contest the facts and legal issues surrounding the eviction.
