An A-Z of Retirement Villages and Extra Care Schemes
The last 8 weeks have seen much serious discussion and essential guidance to aid the sector tackle COVID-19. During this time, the Housing LIN has been networking with national and local government, trade and professional bodies, and providers of sheltered housing, retirement villages and extra care housing to help them rapidly adjust their operational plans and practice. For more about our range of activities and the briefings we have published, visit our Coronavirus Info Hub.
On a lighter note, we have created this A to Z of sheltered housing, retirement villages and extra care housing developments where one of the words in the scheme name begins with a letter of the alphabet.
The list of 26 schemes is purely meant as a bit of light-hearted fun (#HLINfunday (opens new window)) in these difficult times. We welcome your suggestions, especially any schemes that have a U, X or Z at the beginning of the name of the scheme!
