Living at home can become harder as you get older. But choosing to move into supported living accommodation doesn't have to mean losing your independence. In fact, many of our residents tell us it feels like a new beginning.

We have a lovely garden to the rear of the house that residents enjoy sitting in or having a stroll in the fresh air. There is a large bright communal lounge which is perfect for socialising with other residents or spending time with your visitors. This room also houses a piano which is available for anyone to use and is often the highlight of the evening when residents take to it to play a few tunes." Show less
