Show more "This is an Extra Care development with a range of 28 one and two bed apartments. There are many facilities on site for the residents including a treatment room, dining room, hairdressers and library. A professional on-site manager looks after buildings and grounds maintenance and repairs, as well as helping you to access further help and support if you need it.

This is a friendly and inclusive community and activities include Parkinson’s support group, slimming group, bridge, yoga and relaxation, beetle drives, Alzheimer Friends, scrabble, Bedfordshire Carers Support Group, Hospice at Home volunteers and numerous other U3A groups.

For most of our Extra Care Housing estates we have agreements with the local authority to let a percentage of our vacant properties to people nominated by them. Anchor’s agreement for this estate is that all of the allocations are managed by the local authority, South Beds District Council, who can be contacted on 0300 300 8302." Show less
