This week at HOS, our Head of Casework @hos_olivia has been working with a client to explore Sheltered Housing as a safe and comfortable option for later life. If you'd like to speak to someone about your housing situation, get in touch: ow.ly/lE4h50AhreW 🏘️
ALT Text reads: This week I have been helping a client look into Sheltered Housing. Sheltered Housing can be a good option for older people, especially if they aren’t managing in their current home and are looking to downsize. Sheltered Housing offers the security of a community alarm, which can be very reassuring, particularly for those who live alone.
