The awards held at the Care Show at the NEC in Birmingham on Wednesday 11th October aimed to seek out the best retirement housing projects and integrated retirement communities and services in the UK.
ExtraCare’s Care Lead, Suzanne Faizey commented: “Winning this award is a privilege and we are extremely grateful for the recognition. At ExtraCare we strive to provide the very best care for any residents who need it, and we are very proud that our care service at Solihull Retirement Village has been recognised, it is a testament to the hard work of the entire team.”

This is the latest in a series of awards for the charity who have recently received a Retirement Village of the Year award, along with reaccreditations at the GSF awards, and a senior housing award for their innovation team for using technology to support healthy ageing.
Solihull Village opened in 2020 and was built on 3.9 acres on the site of former Powergen offices. The office buildings had been empty for over 20 years and Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council had been seeking regeneration of the site for many years. Last year the location won an award for Inside Housing’s Best Older People’s Housing Development – urban.
