The idea of Very Sheltered Housing is to enable retired people to mainain their independence and to live in their own homes for as long as possible.& This is achieved by careful attention to the design of the building so that no steps or stairs have to be negotiated, sockets and switches are conveniently placed, and flooring is chosen with safety and ease of movement in mind.& There is a speech alarm system accessible to everyone including wheelchair users.

&

Every individual apartment is privately owned and self contained and Owners are at liberty to use the communal facilities as much or as little as they want.& These include a very comfortable lounge, dining room and guest suite.

&

The services provided are much greater than is usual in standard retirement apartments or sheltered housing.
