Our Independent Living with Support schemes are ideal for people aged 55 or over who can manage in their own home but who may need a little help to stay independent.

Your questions answered

  • Independent Living with Support is not a nursing or care home and unfortunately it is not the right option if you need full-time care or support
  • All tenants have their own flat or bungalow
  • There is a scheme manager available within the schemes, Monday to Friday, to ensure the safety of the tenants who live there
  • When the scheme manager is not on site, a Control Centre, which is manned 24-hours-a-day, ensures the safety of tenants
  • Modern technology is used to ensure the safety of tenants eg flood detectors, carbon monoxide detectors and exit sensors
  • Many independent schemes have a range of activities arranged by the tenants with the help of the warden. These may include coffee mornings, trips out and lunches.
