Betty Dodd Court is near the centre of Leagrave, with GP surgeries, a supermarket and a park all close by. It’s home to a weekly community hub where Bedfordshire and Luton Recovery College run activities to promote health and wellbeing. It’s made up of 47 one- and two-bedroom rental apartments.
“I was so impressed with the individual flats with modern facilities – and residents are in theirs 50s and above, so a wide age-range.”
