Independent living

What is independent living?

Independent living accommodation is designed with the needs of older people in mind.

Our accommodation includes unfurnished homes which provide comfort and security and at the same time give residents full independence.

The majority of our independent living schemes have communal facilities such as community rooms for social activities and laundry facilities with washing machines and dryers. Some of our properties also have a guest room available for the use of residents’ visitors at a nominal charge.

On this page you’ll find more information on our independent living service and see our homes.

You can also check your eligibility here before registering your interest.
