Helping you enjoy your retirement
Rooftop has a selection of independent Retirement Living and Housing with Care accommodation available for people aged 55 and over. The properties cater for individuals or couples.
Our Retirement Living in Worcestershire provides independent living within a like-minded and supportive community, helping you to keep your independence whilst knowing you can access support if you choose.
The accommodation, supported by our Retirement Living Officer in Worcestershire and Housing with Care Officer in Gloucestershire, offers people the extra help they may require.
There are additional communal facilities including hobby rooms, laundry facilities, lounges, dining areas, disabled bathing facilities and guest bedrooms.
Social events are organised throughout the year for everyone to enjoy, including family, friends and people living in the community.
Our Housing with Care communities provide housing and support in partnership with external care providers and local councils. In these properties there are care staff on site, provided by our partners, and the accommodation has specialist adaptations to meet your needs.
There are communal facilities, such as lounges, garden, guest facilities and laundry. Some of our sites have a hairdresser, library, shop, activities room and refreshment outlets. Our Support Team is also available with a dedicated Housing Officer for each property.
What is different about retirement living?
Our schemes are special because of the facilities they offer. Our approach is based on the principles that age, health and financial means, shouldn’t be a barrier to enjoying a high quality of life in later years.
These developments are based around the creation of a communal centre that provides places to meet and socialise. There are an enormous range of activities available from arts and craft, woodwork, gardening to health and well-being activities.
Customers are at the heart of what we do and there are amazing people living in Rooftop Homes.
