It sounds good. Rental? Sorry I know nothing about sheltered accommodation but reading with interest.

I am sorry about your diagnosis.

From the details you have given it sounds a good option. Is it a rental? Are you renting now?
If buying, beware of management fees and other hidden costs.

Now that I’ve been diagnosed with a terminal lung disease (pulmonary fibrosis) I’ve been to see one locally. It seemed a very nice place. They currently have a studio ground floor flat available. It has a tiny kitchen and shower room. There’s also a back door with little patio area for me to sit with a cuppa and a pot plant or two.

I’m a young at heart 71 but swore I wouldn’t consider this option until I was at least 90! The facilities are great and the light and airy communal lounge is very modern, as opposed to some you see in old peoples homes usually.

Be interested to see any comments 😀
