A HOSPICE in Oxenhope has submitted plans to build a temporary office to provide more space for its community nurse specialists.

Manorlands Hospice expects to need the one-storey building for a period of about five years, according to details accompanying the proposals.

Hospice director Lizzie Procter (pictured) said the existing office for its community nurses was too small to accommodate them when they were all together.

Oxenhope Parish Council has recommended that Bradford Council approves the plans.
