ExtraCare Housing, options for older people

What is ExtraCare housing?

  • do you need to leave your old home because of life changes, health problems or because you are unhappy with where you live?
  • have you had an assessment and have an identified need for care?
  • are you over 55?

If you want to stay in control of your life, have privacy and independence but need some help with day to day living, then ExtraCare housing could be what you are looking for.

ExtraCare housing is designed to offer a safe, private and secure environment. You are able to retain the independence of having your own front door whilst enjoying the benefits of having staff on site 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
