Property charges
Contrary to popular belief, retirement villages can be surprisingly affordable, and can offer a range of financial benefits that traditional housing options may not provide.
Activities
With a fantastic range of village activities on site there is always something to do
Resident story
We all join in, getting to grips with the instruments, with several of the residents using the baton to conduct the musicians and us. Gwen always has the chimes, her lovely face lights up, her smile!

Resident story
Now, more than 60 years after they first met, Val and Lynne have both moved to the new Longbridge Retirement Village in Birmingham, where they plan to spend the rest of their lives just a stone’s throw away from each other.

Resident story
I used to be a warden for the elderly for over 20 years so you could say I am a people person. For my 80th birthday the village threw me a party, I could not believe it, 80 to 90 residents ended up showing up for me. There were even daffodil bulbs at my party for everyone.

Social rented properties
We offer a proportion of social rented properties across our locations.
These are allocated jointly with the local authority. A local Council will have a policy on who qualifies for social housing and who gets priority for this in the area, please contact the local Council directly to find out about eligibility.
Unfortunately we do not offer private rental or sub letting on any of our properties.
Care & wellbeing
ExtraCare takes pride in providing exceptional retirement care services for those who need it. Our care services include assisted living support, well-being support, and dementia care. Have a watch of the video to find out more.
Affordable living
At ExtraCare we assist our residents to maximise their income through identifying benefits and assistance they may be missing out on.
The following costs associated with Village residency may be eligible for support through the Welfare Benefits System:
- Housing costs of a shared ownership or rental property
- The provision of care
- Weekly charges
Our Welfare Benefits Advisors can advise, in confidence, about a resident’s entitlements. In some rare cases, levels of benefit entitlement may be insufficient, but our Welfare Benefits Team is able to complete an affordability assessment with you to offer guidance and support.
In 2022/2023 our advisors saved residents over £5.8M and supported 70% of residents to receive what they are entitled to.
