Nottingham City Council Housing Services - Independent Living for Older People

Nottingham City Council Housing Services provide 68 independent living schemes throughout the city. A range of one or two bedroom flats are available, offering people the independence of living in their own self-contained home with the benefit of a little extra support. We look after the maintenance and security of the property and grounds, and professional Independent Living Coordinators make regular visits to help residents access all the services they need to maintain an independent lifestyle. An optional connection to Nottingham on Call is also offered, providing the peace of mind of a 24 hours seven days a week monitoring service.

Winwood Heights in Sherwood has the additional benefit of an on-site care provider. Fully accessible for disabled people, it allows older people and those with care needs to stay living within their communities for longer

Welcoming communal facilities encourage socialising. Most of the communal rooms have been completely refurbished as part of our ‘Grander Designs’ programme. Lounges are bright and airy with contemporary artwork and fittings with comfortable and modern seating for social gatherings. Many residents take part in activities including excursions, IT classes, affordable meals and exercise classes.

Affordable tenancies are available for those aged 60+ (or 55+ if in receipt of eligible benefits). Furnished tenancies may be available on request. Contact us on the details below to arrange a viewing or just to find out more.
