Retirement Villages

Welcome to Inspired Villages

Our ethos is simple. We put the health and happiness of our residents at the heart of everything we do, with the promise of a life less ordinary for today's generation of retirees.

Everything we do is motivated by the admiration and respect we have for our residents, their families, and the lifestyle they desire and deserve.

This motivation influences every part of an Inspired village - from the service levels of our team through to the planning and design of the village itself.

Month in focus

October proved to be a very busy month for our inspired villagers, with much-needed funds and awareness raised for some very worthy causes and visits from some famous faces.

Residents and visitors at Austin Heath were treated to a medley of musical favourites when they hosted the Armonico Consort Choir, featuring TVs James May and Oz Clarke, raising smiles and funds for Dementia Support. They also called in at a local primary school to share their experiences of WWII and life in 1940’s Britain, then put their best foot forward, crossing the finish line of a 20- mile walk from Solihull to Warwick for Parkinson’s UK.

The spotlight was on Breast Cancer charities throughout month, including a ‘Wear it Pink’ day at Gifford Lea and a ‘Dance for a Good Cause’ at Great Alne Park.

Community spirit, laughter and delicious food aplenty during Elderswell’s Harvest Harmony event, while Ledian Gardens and Great Alne Park rounded off their month with a visit from Olympic legend Eddie “The Eagle” Edwards to mark the launches of the next phase of both villages.

National loneliness week: Our video campaign

Nobody deserves to be alone in later life

You may have noticed our brand-new film at the top of this very page!

Did you know that over 2 million people aged 75 and up live alone and can go a whole month without talking to anyone?

We believe it shouldn't be this way. Human connection is key to our wellbeing, which is why it's at the heart of everything we do at our retirement villages. Our communities are warm and welcoming; helping people feel a sense of belonging as soon as they step through our doors and beyond. You can read our blog here.

RESIDENT STORIES

Stories from our residents

We’ve had some truly heart-warming messages from residents over recent weeks; nothing could make us prouder than receiving that kind of feedback.

MS J - DAUGHTER OF INSPIRED VILLAGES RESIDENTS

"My parents are residents of Great Alne Park and like most of the residents are classed as ‘vulnerable’. I just wanted to say thank you so much for all that you and your staff at Great Alne Park are doing to support your residents. The compassion and care you all are demonstrating towards the residents is so reassuring to me as a family member worried about them.”

MR B – INSPIRED VILLAGES RESIDENT

"We visited Ledian Gardens, and from the moment we walked in, we knew. We didn't need to think any further. It just felt right. When we made the decision to move here, it turned out to be the best decision we've ever made."

MARY EWING, 78, DURRANTS VILLAGE RESIDENT

“We’ve been really lucky with the village team here, they are wonderful, I can’t fault them, they’ve been absolutely brilliant and gone out of their way to support us all.

The retirement villages are a really good concept because so many people in the wider community are really lonely, but if you’re lonely in a place like this you’ve got no one to blame but yourself!”

MR E – INSPIRED VILLAGES RESIDENT

“I just wanted to say how much we appreciate the efforts of the staff for their support of residents. Each person here has done their utmost to help us. The shop, restaurant and laundry are facilities that help on a daily basis. We’ve been here for three years and don’t think that we could have chosen a better place to come to."
