Sheltered housing gives tenants an opportunity to live in a safe and friendly environment where they can retain their independence and look after themselves but, at the same time, have the additional security of help and advice when needed. The support service provided by Sheltered Scheme Co-ordinators helps our sheltered scheme residents have peace of mind and reassurance.
Residents of sheltered developments still need the support and care of relatives and friends. Each Sheltered Scheme Co-ordinator has responsibilities to a number of people and cannot replace this vital support.
Not all sheltered housing units have the same facilities. Some have communal facilities on site, such as a lounge, laundry with drying room and a guest room. Others may have existing social clubs. You will be able to enjoy the benefits these communal facilities can bring, whilst retaining your privacy whenever you want to.
