Find community, safety and comfort in our independent living schemes

Looking for a way to keep your independence with a bit of support? 

Our independent living schemes offer self-contained flats and bungalows, with shared facilities, such as a communal lounge, kitchen, and laundry room. They’re ideal for people who want to stay independent in a social community that benefits from low level support from an independent living officer.  

The benefits of independent living schemes: 

• a home set out on one level and lift access to upper floors
• availability of lifeline alarm / call system
• mobility scooter store at most schemes
• most schemes have a guest bedroom for family and friends to visit
• communal lounge and kitchen 
• social activities like bingo, games nights, arts and crafts and coffee mornings
• most schemes have Wi-Fi access in the communal lounge

Who can apply? 

Applicants should be aged 60 and over although in some circumstances we’ll consider applicants aged 40 and over. 

Independent living schemes are suitable for people with low level support needs because our independent living officers are unable to offer personal or medical care.
