Assisi Place
Hunslet, MHA Care Group

Description of Scheme

The Assisi Place is a purpose built development of 45 apartments to rent, specially designed to make life comfortable for people in later life. Arranged on three levels with a lift and wheelchair access throughout, the two-bedroom apartments are all suitable for individuals or couples.

A dedicated team provides 'round-the- clock' support and flexible care tailored to individual needs. All residents receive a well-being service, offering advice and regular support. Social activities and events are also organised.

The on-site staff team enables residents to continue to live independently in their own home and maintain a good quality of life. Additional support is available with personal care, preparing meals, cleaning, laundry and dealing with emergencies. Having support on hand, whenever needed, gives all-important reassurance.

Where Is It?

Hunslet is a mile south of Leeds city centre and good local amenities are within walking distance, includingsupermarkets, post office, banks, medical centres and a library. There is a bus stop right outside the scheme with regular buses into Leeds city centre, passing Crown Point shopping centre and Leeds Royal Armouries museum at Clarence Dock - home to a number of restaurants.

Local links with Beeston are also easily maintained with a regular bus service to Holbeck via Dewsbury Road. Beeston has two large health centres and the White Rose shopping centre on its doorstep.
