Solihull Village

Based on the site of the former Powergen offices at Shirley, the village offers a new lease of life for the over 55s. At ExtraCare, our philosophy is that later life is for doing more, not less. Solihull Village gives you the chance be part of an active and vibrant community, where you can share your skills and learn new ones.

With up to 50 activities a week, you’ll never be at a loss for something to do. The village has a host of facilities, including an arts and crafts room and a cinema, where you can stay active and take part in the community on your doorstep.

Solihull Village has 261 apartments, available for outright sale, shared ownership and rent from the local council. It has 170 car parking spaces.

At ExtraCare we have 30 years’ experience in supporting residents to be as independent as possible, providing the best care only when and if it’s needed.

If you need care and support, either now or in the future, our QCF (NVQ) qualified staff can assess your needs and deliver care in the privacy and comfort of your village home. Care may range from just a daily pop-in visit to regular and more personal help.

Our Village staff team will of course respond in a serious emergency.

At an ExtraCare village, you can keep your independence in your own apartment and take advantage of the wealth of facilities on site.

With a wide range of facilities and up to 50 activities a week, you’ll be able to live life to the fullest at Solihull Village.

You can be as active as you like and there will always be something to do at Solihull Village. You can try new challenges, pursue new hobbies or share the skills you have already by volunteering. The options are endless and there will always be someone new to meet amongst your neighbours and friends!

Have lunch in the bistro, meet friends in the café, read the paper in the library, or take up knitting in the craft room.

As with all ExtraCare locations, Solihull Village has a Well-being Centre, run by a Well-being Advisor, a qualified nurse who offers health information, screenings and advice about leading a healthy lifestyle. They are able to cover everything from managing illnesses such as diabetes and asthma to sleep advice and staying safe in your own home.
