FAQs
Can you still work and live in a retirement village?
| Many residents in retirement villages continue working full-time or part-time. |
Can someone under 55 live with me?
| Within the terms of the Lease guests may stay with you in your property for 28 days maximum at any one time. En-suite guest rooms are also available within some Village at extremely reasonable prices. |
Can a person under 55 buy in a 55 community?
| No. |
Are your retirement properties suitable for people with dementia?
| The concept of our villages is ‘Independence in retirement’. However, the Company is able to assist in arranging personal or domiciliary care packages through an external provider when necessary on a private basis, at an additional cost. Where possible residents can, of course, make their own arrangements with a private domiciliary care company or through Social Services. Some residents may need a live in carer to support their ongoing independence. Where the situation deteriorates and independence diminishes to the point where permanent nursing or more specialist care is needed, then inevitably the resident themselves or their relatives will recognise that alternative living arrangements need to be made. |
