Views and aspirations of people in Torbay in relation to housing in later life
Tell us what matters to you and help us plan for future housing provision in Torbay
We know that people will make different decisions about where and how they live as they get older. Some will want to stay living in the same home; others will look to move to more manageable homes; and some will feel that housing designated for older people best suits their needs.
If you are aged 50 and over, we would like to know about your plans…
If you live in Torbay (Torquay, Paignton, Brixham) and are starting to think about where you want to live as you get older, we’d really love to hear from you. We want to hear from people currently living in all types of accommodation. If you’ve already moved, we’d also really like to hear about your reasons for moving.
This is your chance to influence future housing for older people
