Whether you are active and independent, simply want to down-size your property or would benefit from added security, our Independent Living schemes can provide you with the lifestyle you want.

We have sixteen schemes, in both town and village locations, offering a variety of accommodation and facilities for residents over the age of 60. From studio flats to two-bedroom bungalows, you will have the independence of your own front door, and can make your home truly your own. Many of our schemes also boast excellent communal facilities and a thriving social calendar.

We have approximately 3,500 residents over the age of 60; and around a fifth of these live in one of our Independent Living schemes. 

You can enjoy your independence with a little extra support when you need it.

Each scheme has an Independent Living Co-ordinator, who is on hand should you require support. They are not available 24 hours a day and cannot provide nursing or home-care services, however, they can liaise with other agencies to arrange for any additional help you need.
