In three-and a-half years, 26 Bradford Ex-Servicemen have completed a self-help scheme of building their own semi-detatched bungalows in their spare time. The houses have been built near Netherlands Avenue, Low Moor. The last house is now completed. The occupants will move in on Saturday. And that will be the end of five years of hard work for the members who, for a deposit of £50 and 20 hours of spare time work every week, have built houses for themselves at a cost of about £980.
