European disability residential care infrastructure projects

Overview

New residential care and community housing projects for people with disabilities have commenced in the Czech Republic and Bulgaria.

In Bučovice, Czech Republic, a project was launched to construct a barrier-free facility for 12 individuals. The single-story building aims to provide private rooms and shared social spaces, utilizing heat pumps and photovoltaic power to ensure energy efficiency. The project is funded primarily through European funds via the Integrated Regional Operational Programme, with completion expected by early 2028.

In Plovdiv, Bulgaria, construction has begun on a larger residential care center in the Trakia district. This 12.9 million euro initiative, funded by the Regional Development Program 2021–2027, will include eight buildings and a social support center. The complex is designed to support 225 individuals, including those with dementia, intellectual disabilities, and physical disabilities, through small-group living arrangements. Completion is anticipated between August 2027 and August 2028.
