Chinese elders housing

We provide housing for older Chinese people in Middlesbrough and Newcastle.

Our housing schemes for Chinese elders offer a range of specialist facilities, as well as a secure home that is catered towards your needs.

Part-time Chinese speaking caretakers are on hand to maintain the schemes, including repairs and health and safety. Chinese satellite TV is also available throughout the complex.

Support services include:

  • warden call service linked to staff on site

  • you’re aged 60 or over - or living with a partner who is age 60 or over - and of Chinese origin with housing needs
  • you feel you’d benefit from being around Chinese speaking staff members who can deal with a range of queries
  • you’re looking to have your own personal space, as well as be part of a wider community with regular social activity
  • you’re focused on finding a property that is accessible and tailored towards your individual needs.
