The 50plus Independence In Your Home service, makes staying in the home environment an easier choice through provision of a broad range of adaptations, maintenance and improvement services offering peace of mind to users and their families.

Independence In Your Home is designed to serve those who need to remain safe independent and comfortable when:

• Choosing to remain at home, perhaps instead of moving to residential care
• Being discharged from hospital and requiring home adaptations
• Requiring a little more help with general maintenance around the home.

Independence means making individual choices and decisions about what we do and how we live. This autonomy gives us a positive sense of well being and often keeps us healthier.

We realise that independence is important for many people as they grow older and studies show that for the vast majority of people this includes a desire to live in their own home rather than moving into residential care. Adapting the home environment or receiving a little more help assists with safety and can provide additional comfort.

If you or a family member desires independence but find some of the tasks that much harder, then home adaptations, improvement and maintenance support may be of help. Some of the changes you make can be simple such as changing lighting to make knitting, reading or moving around easier. There are the classical adaptations such as changing a bath to a shower. Also todays widely available technology can be used to provide improved communication with family members, remote control of a broad range of items and/or improved security. It is always worth asking, 'what can I do to make life that bit easier?'.

Independence In Your Home is a service offered by The 50plus to the elderly, their relatives, carers and supporting agencies or others who may have particular needs.

Cost is dependent upon what is required.  Advice over the telephone is free.
