Independent Living for Older People

Independent Living

Our Independent Living Schemes offer housing for older people in a safe and secure property with staff onsite to provide housing management services. These schemes promote independence with the capacity to signpost tenants to other services as their needs change to allow them to live independently in the home for as long as possible. 

Properties are self-contained flats or cottages designed to meet the requirements of people over 55 or with a medical or physical disability. 

Our smaller schemes have staff onsite Monday – Friday for approximately 15 hours.  Larger schemes have staff available Monday – Friday  – 35 hours per week.  When staff are not at the scheme tenants can contact our main office for assistance.  After 5pm tenants can raise emergencies via our Out of Hours service.  Tenants who need additional help to live independently can install community alarm in their home to access help where it is needed.

Properties may feature grab rails, level access showers, lower baths, and high-level electric sockets. All properties are accessible flatted properties are no higher than two floors or have a lift. Most schemes have communal facilities, which could include a communal lounge, laundry facilities, and guest rooms.  Many schemes have an active social element for those who like to be involved. 

Further information on these types of schemes can be found here.
