Birchgrove – offering a personal service
Assisted living has been a popular lifestyle choice for many years, and it’s not hard to see why.
Security, freedom, new friends and a fresh start are all enticing reasons to make the move. Although it can be a little daunting, there are numerous reasons why living in a self-contained retirement apartment is such a positive experience for so many.
Specialist developer Birchgrove is rapidly growing its portfolio of high-quality retirement communities. One ingredient behind this success is the diverse breadth and depth of experience behind the Birchgrove name. All working together to create a community where people can age well by staying healthier, happier and stronger for longer.
Underlying Birchgrove’s business model is a belief that the current housing options for people over 65 exclude a large section of those who don’t want to manage another house purchase – and therefore ‘assisted living for rent is the missing piece in the housing puzzle; not right for all, but perfect for some.’
Bill was delighted when one of the Birchgrove advisors took Birchgrove to him when he made an enquiry.
“I was living alone and only one neighbour offered me any help. She was a lovely person with two kids, but she was the only one. And I’d been living there 38 years.”
“I saw an article in my local paper, so I emailed to find out more. When the advisor got in touch, we had a chat, and she offered to visit me at home. The visit was a great way to help me find out more about living in a retirement community whilst in the comfort of my own home. While chatting, she sensed I was keen, so she offered to take me to my nearest show suite to look around in person, which was great. They even gave me lunch, and I sat with the team and got to meet some of the other residents. I find the people here so very lovely. Everyone is so welcoming and helpful.”
“I moved in last autumn, and I haven’t looked back since. It’s great living here. I’ve got fewer worries. Where I was, I couldn’t keep on top of the upkeep of the house or garden; it was all getting overgrown. Here I don’t have to worry about anything anymore – paying for gas, electricity, water, or any of that.”
“It’s a strange thing if you think about it. You don’t realise how isolated and lonely you have become and how much difference it makes to see and be around people until you come here. It’s taken me time to get used to it, but I am easing in gently. Yes, moving here has helped me regain my independence, but I am really touched by the social opportunities that have given me a whole new lease of life.”
