Within this newsletter you can find outmore about the plans and how you canshare your views.
Contributing To Local Needs
Residents should have the opportunity to stay close to their hometown and to their family in later life. Dedicated retirement living developments in central locations such as Sandiacre provide that opportunity, helping free up family housing for younger families,
whilst also contributing towards local regeneration.
We strongly believe that this development will be a local asset and represents an important opportunity to sustain the regeneration of the wider site and to meet an acknowledged and growing need for specialist local housing.
Making Retirement Living More Affordable
Retirement living makes an enormous difference to the lives of older people. It helps residents stay happier and healthier for longer, enabling them to maintain their independence, find a community and make new friendships. It combines the best features of your own home with the ability to have care and support on hand when required. It is a way of living that adapts to your changing needs.
We strongly believe that all residents should have the opportunity to access this style of retirement living. At McCarthy Stone we have developed a new way of delivering these developments that can make them more affordable. Through adopting approaches like modern methods of construction we can reduce overall development costs, which ultimately reduce the cost of the apartments for residents.
What Happens Next?
We will continue to develop the proposals for the site and intend to submit a planning application this winter.
