Built by Wulvern – which is now part of The Guinness Partnership – it supports our residents to live independently.
Our approach to extra care means residents can live a full and active lifestyle. So we built the scheme’s private, self-contained apartments around fantastic communal facilities.
Residents can meet up for coffee with friends, enjoy a haircut at the salon or relax in the spa and therapy rooms.
The refurbishment of the existing sheltered housing was in five phases, which allowed us to work quickly to complete
the development with minimal disruption to the area.
Flexible and accessible living
The apartments were designed with our occupational therapist. Each one has a wet floor shower room,
wide doorways and easy to manage fixtures. Pickmere has the latest green technology providing low-cost heating
and electricity.
The development as a whole benefits from state of the art eco features and sustainability planning.
