New Retirement Living PLUS

Sometimes, a little extra help is all you need to allow you to stay active, to do the things you want to do and feel part of the community. That’s why all our Retirement Living PLUS developments offer the services of a brilliant domestic and personal care team onsite each day. We like to think we can help make every day living a little bit easier and more enjoyable.

You’ll receive one hour of weekly domestic cleaning included in your service charge. On top of this you can arrange for extra domestic and personal services that are completely flexible and tailored to suit you. As the services are available in 15 minute increments, you can have as much support as you need, when you need it. The service can be dialled up and down too – so, for instance, you may need a bit of extra help if you are convalescing, which you can stop as soon as you are fully recovered. This means you only pay for the services you use. Before moving into a Retirement Living PLUS Development you are offered a confidential wellbeing assessment, so, if you need it, your support package can be put in place from the moment you move in.
