A challenge we all face as we get older is to think about where we live, and how it will work for us when we’re older.
Some care homes are registered to provide personal care only, for example help with washing, dressing and giving medication.

Making sure our residents don’t feel stuck in a rut at mealtimes, we have special and themed meal nights, giving residents a chance to do something different.

Our Housing Directory aims to include all housing schemes /developments in the UK that are intended for older people. Most retirement developments offer either properties for sale or for rent, but newer ones may offer both tenure options, and possibly shared ownership too. If you have a home to sell, you may be able to use the proceeds to pay the deposit on a new property and take out a ‘lifetime mortgage’ to cover the rest of the cost. If you simply want to move to a more suitable non-retirement home, and need help or advice with this, our EAC Advice service is here to help you.
