They actually listened and the plans for the hostel are scrapped which is honestly surreal because I kept waiting for them to tell us no. I am just staring at the email and shaking my head because it turns out we really did manage to hold onto our quiet corner …

Please do not allow developers and adult social care to use the St.Emilie’s and St. Josephs ex-convent site as an unsupported Assisted Living Hostel which will be the largest in the world outside of the United States and in such a small road and community is inappropriate for both the occupants and residents.
Oakhill Park has already had extremely bad experience of this type of facility and it caused numerous issues with both the police and social services having to attend the site at all hours of the day causing major disruption and disturbance to local residents of a normally peaceful and friendly area.

I spent the morning staring at the empty convent site and trying to imagine how on earth they think a facility this massive could ever fit into our tiny street without completely destroying the quiet we all moved here for. People keep messaging me with these really painful stories about what happened last time a place like this was plonked down nearby so I am currently busy bundling those up into a formal letter that they absolutely cannot ignore even if they try.

I honestly stare at this screen sometimes and cannot believe how many people actually care about Oakhill Park because I really thought I was just yelling into the void when I started this. The momentum is honestly dizzying and seeing so many neighbors find each other here is just wild and it really keeps me going when I feel like giving up on the paperwork.

In such a quiet community, why cause issues by opening any type of establishment that is unstaffed? Senseless.
Not suitable for a quiet, residential area. The amount of traffic will increase and destroy the tranquility of the road.
I think this is a disaster waiting to happen, who on earth would think a facility on this scale should be placed on a one lane road, literally a stone throw away from quiet residential homes.
Totally wrong use for a residential area, which has many young families and elderly people.The risk of anti social behaviour is extremely high and will have a negative impact on the whole of old swan.
This facility is not in keeping with this quiet street, and the people involved have not been up front with their intended residents.
Fully support the petition for the reasons stated
My daughter went through two years of hell with a neighbour and his brother who were both drug addicts ONLY ENDED WHEN ONE OF THEM WAS SHOT DEAD Definitely not the right place to build a hostel!!!

The Sisters of St. Joseph + the Prince of Peace was such an AMAZING place of prayer, praise + worship for so many, many years. They blessed Oakhill Rd + West Oakhill Rd, Old Swan, all Liverpool so incredibly. Please protect + respect the residents in Oakhill Rd
