Sheltered housing residents consulted

People living in council-run sheltered housing complexes are being asked their views on potential changes to services.

Stephen Llewellyn, head of housing solutions, said: “The housing needs of older people have changed significantly over the years.

“People are living longer and our policies, facilities and procedures need updated to better meet the health and wellbeing requirements of those living in our complexes.

“This will involve investment not only to improve facilities, but also tailoring services so we are providing the most appropriate care and support for people to continue living independently.

“We are undertaking a full consultation process with sheltered housing residents, their families and carers.”
