Are you starting to think more about where to live as you get older? It may have come to a time where you feel like living in your home isn't as suitable or safe, and although it is not an easy decision there are a number of options available. These include renting, buying, supported housing, independent living housing, residential care homes, dementia friendly care homes, nursing homes and care at home options offered by Abbeyfield.
Whether you are looking to downsize or find somewhere more suitable for your physical needs, finding it more difficult to manage by yourself, want to live in the company of others as part of a community, we have a variety of housing options to suit you. Read more below to find out about the range of options and to search for the right housing option near you.
Staying in your own home could still be an option for you, even if you are struggling with daily activities. Small changes to your home and getting support from trained carers could make all the difference and help you stay at home for longer.
