Shipping Container residents helped by Homebase

Residents of a shipping container housing development in Brighton have been helped out by DIY Superstore Homebase, to furnish their new homes. 36 shipping containers in Brighton provided by Brighton Housing Trust (BHT) are being furnished next month much to the joy of the residents.

The shipping containers were provided by QED Property and will provide much needed housing for 36 people for five years. Chief Executive of BHT, Andy Winter said;

“These are much more than shipping containers. They have been converted into housing and with the support of Homebase, these houses are being converted into homes.

“Thirty six men and women are having their homes furnished and equipped to a high standard.

“The focus on this development to date has been on the shell provided by the shipping containers.

“We can now focus on the experience of our tenants who will be getting their own homes.”
