Extra care housing
Extra care housing is designed for residents:
- aged 55 or older with care needs

We have 3 extra care housing schemes in Southwark.
Our extra care schemes offer:

How it works
If you think that you need extra care housing, a social worker will assess your needs and whether it’s the right type of housing for you.
A panel of social care and housing representatives will then decide if you can have an extra care home.
