While many people prefer to remain at home and invest in other services such as meals and laundry services, other choose the lifestyle of a retirement village.
If the lifestyle of the village you choose is suitable to you, you may well find that the years you spend there are personally fulfilling, offering friendship, companionship and social contact on a regular basis.
Before deciding on a retirement village you should look at other options for providing services to you in your own home.
If you find a village that you like you should speak to existing residents in the village about the harmony in the village and asses whether the village lifestyle would suite you.
Because so much depends on the terms of the particular retirement village contract, ensure that you discuss the terms of that contract in detail with your solicitor and that you understand all of the costs and charges involved.
