TWO red phone boxes in Bradford city centre will become shops after an unusual planning application was approved by Bradford Council.
Thinking Outside the Box is a charitable trust that supports homeless projects by giving a percentage of its earnings from the retail uses of converted phone boxes.
An application was submitted by Steve Beeken to work with the trust to convert boxes on Rawson Square to units that would be staffed by two people and open everyday of the week, selling either pre-prepared packed lunches, cold drinks, ice cream or hot drinks.
