PARENTS whose children have left home are being offered the chance to downsize.
Thirteen apartments have been built on a former derelict site in Knaresborough Road, Harrogate.
The borough council is offering them to people who live in council housing, but want to move to somewhere smaller.
Councillor Jean Butterfield, cabinet member for housing, said: "It isn't easy for families living in council homes to find smaller alternative accommodation in an area they want to live in."
The apartments will be showcased at Fairfax Community Centre, on Friday, February 10, from 2.30pm to 3.30pm, for council tenants living in family accommodation.
