Cllr Penny Andow, Conwy’s Cabinet Member for Integrated Adult and Community Services, said:
“This development is part of our long term vision for Conwy Social Services, helping us deliver our services in a high quality, bespoke environment.
“We’re proud to be leading positive change for people with disabilities wanting to begin their careers, whilst making sure our customers have the best quality experience.
