Supported housing services
We’ve got loads of housing and support options for older people. And for people with specific needs too.
We know how we’d feel if we had our independence taken away. That’s why we provide over 1,000 high-quality, self-contained homes specifically for people aged 55 and over. Our schemes are designed for independent living with peace of mind.
Each property is fitted with an emergency alarm call system, monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Depending on where you live, our Independent Living Team can be on duty, on-site or in local schemes and will respond to emergency alarm calls. When not on duty or off site, our emergency alarm monitoring team answers calls and takes the appropriate action.
Our Independent Living team manage our properties and keep everything ship shape. They also provide a housing support service. Although don’t get this confused with personal care. They don’t provide that, but don’t worry. The team will support you in getting get these services if needed.
Our services vary depending on where you live in our geography, and we offer bespoke support services that do not interfere in your daily life. Our services focus on maintaining independent living. Generally, it is “helping with” rather than “doing for”.
We:
- Make sure everyone can access the services they need. From social services, to meals on wheels or household help.
- Know all the local groups. Becoming part of the community is easy.
