Don’t move away from friends and social networks? I live on the south coast near Brighton as it goes? but have always lived on the coast either here in Sussex or in Dorset. These areas are getting more expensive to live in as young families move here from London and the demographic is at last not just old people.this means that our local services are now moving away from being focused on elder care and focusing on young families. You have to consider how it will be if your health gets worse, better to be in poor health with friends around then in a seaside town however lovely! And then get isolated! Lots of the old people in my town who now struggle to get out and are isolated are ones who moved here after retirement for the coast life?
Last weekend, in Rutland, the first statue in Britain of the late Elizabeth II was unveiled.
