Retirement Housing

Retirement houses are properties which have been purposely designed for older people - that is they will normally have full central heating, grab rails, special bathroom fittings, a community alarm system and the services of Retirement Housing staff. They may also have other facilities, such as a common room for the use of all tenants where a range of activities are held, including, for example, Bingo, Knitting Bees, Fish Supper nights, etc.
