Extra Care housing is a type of purpose-built housing scheme to enable people over 55 who want to continue to live independently but with the added benefit of care and support, as and when it is needed.
Extra Care schemes offer an exceptional range of facilities which encourage people to live life to the full and embrace new opportunities regardless of their age or ability.
The schemes offer independent self-contained apartments, to rent or buy, in a safe and homely community setting. Residents are part of an active, friendly community whilst having the assurance that care and support is available when required, 24 hours a day, seven days per week.
There are currently four schemes operating in the Borough:
Housing 21:
- Willowfields, Whitehouse Street, Coseley
- Broad Meadow, Red Kite Drive, Dudley
- Lime Gardens, Benjamin Drive, Halesowen
Bromford:
- Beacon Court, Charles Hayward Drive, Wolverhampton
