East of England Co-op has completed work on five new properties in Brightlingsea, providing much needed living space for local people.

Mike Scarlett, Head of Building Services at East of England Co-op, said: “As a community retailer, local people are at the heart of everything we do, and I’m pleased that our co-op is providing new homes for the Brightlingsea community.

“This exciting project has been a real collaborative effort with a local contractor, Forum Contracts, who have done a fantastic job of transforming the space above our Station Road store in to modern and stylish flats, as well as with the refurbishment of our Food store earlier this year”.
