Housing for the elderly

This section provides information and advice about housing for the elderly.

A number of organisations have properties in the Borough, either for rent or for sale, that are specifically for elderly people.
Some provide “sheltered” accommodation with a warden, others have accommodation designed or designated for the elderly, but without a warden.
Most (but not all) of the homes specifically for elderly people have alarm systems linked to a central control room.

Housing for rent

The following Registered Social Landlords (housing associations) and charities have accommodation in the Borough to rent.  In some instances you may need to be nominated by the Council to the organisation concerned (Further information is available on the Housing Register page)
