What is extra care housing?
Extra care is sometimes known as assisted living or sheltered housing.
This is when a resident owns, rents or part-rents their own purpose-built home within a scheme that provides communal spaces and care support for them.
Our services are commissioned by the local authorities and are available to people living at, or moving to, selected schemes.

Life at Sumners Farm Close
The excellent communal facilities, such as dining room, lounge and gardens provide the perfect venue for a host of social activities.
Registered Manager, Sarah Archer, describes the communal spirit as the key point which sets Sumners Farm Close apart:
“There is a strong community spirit at Sumners Farm Close. Through Covid, it was really deflating for resident who couldn’t see anyone. Now though everyone is coming back into the dining room. They are laughing and playing games again.
We have a social activity at lunch time. Everyone comes down into the dining room for lunch and then afterwards they can choose to stay or not. We arrange activities twice a week. Things like bingo where residents can win prizes.”
