‘I Promised Mum she’d never Go into a Care Home’
An Assisted Living apartment at Inspired Gifford Lea in Cheshire is a positive alternative to a conventional care home. Residents can take a dip in the pool, enjoy lunch with friends in one of the restaurants... and benefit from high-quality care and support.
At Gifford Lea, Inspired Villages’ later living community near Chester, residents can live life independently and to the full - while receiving care, tailored to their needs.
Inspired’s Assisted Living apartments at Gifford Lea offer an attractive alternative for independently-minded over-65s.
The Assisted Living properties at the luxurious retirement village, in Tattenhall, are available to buy or rent, and each one offers retirees the privacy of their own self-contained home. The Assisted Living package includes all utilities, as well as one three course meal in the comfort of their own home or in the on-site restaurant, all laundry, cleaning, provision of breakfast essentials and optional extras such as weekly personal shopping and therapy sessions. In addition to this, residents are also given access to fantastic clubhouse facilities and an active social life - all on their doorstep.
Feel independent... feel Inspired
James Cobb, director of Inspired Villages, which owns and operates later living communities around the UK, says: “These apartments are ideal for people who seek independence at the same time as benefiting from dedicated care services. As well as their own front door, residents have their own kitchen, living room and bedroom with en-suite bathroom!”
“Whether buying or renting, our Assisted Living apartments come with a range of services to help make life just that little bit easier. These packages also include the service charge, so you donít have to worry about such day-to-day matters as outside maintenance, gardening, property insurance or window cleaning.”
Be part of an active, lively community
Each Assisted Living apartment is located close to the wide range of social and leisure facilities that Gifford Lea is known for. These include Eric’s Lounge, a social hub for residents to meet up for a coffee, enjoy a light lunch, play games or take part
in other activities.
Meanwhile, this spring will see the opening of Gifford Lea’s eagerly-awaited Clubhouse and wellness spa, including a swimming pool, sauna, steam room, treatment suite and relaxation spaces.
Also opening in the spring will be a brasserie, garden room, library and a beauty salon.
