What is Retirement Living? Retirement living is defined as a coverall term for post-work life. The image it conjures up, however, can vary. What’s important is to get the retirement lifestyle you’ve not only worked for but that’s appropriate for your needs. Retirement is one of the biggest life changes you’ll face and making that transition a success requires planning. Work will no longer be the focus of your days but the traditional view of bored retirees watching daytime TV or wandering around garden centres is changing. We’re living longer – many people now live in retirement for around 30 years – and more people want an active and healthy retirement. So, with potentially a third of your life spent post-work, you need to properly consider your retirement living options. Contact us for more information Making the most of your retirement living is easy with Platinum Skies. We have a full-time lifestyle manager at every Platinum Skies location. Our managers get to know every resident personally, so they are able to connect like-minded residents using our mix of social activities, days out or health-related activities. Many of our retirement living sites feature activity rooms, treatment rooms and communal areas, which you can take full advantage of. Many of our retirement communities are located in beautiful areas allowing for beach or woodland walks, and cycleways so you can stay healthy and active in soothing natural surroundings.

Release cash to help offspring get on the housing ladder or find the funds to pay off debts. Releasing equity from your home is one way to release cash to do this, or to boost your retirement income. Another is to downsize to a smaller house or flat. Platinum Skies offers an alternative that puts you and your retirement living front and centre but still allows you to assist your family or pay off debts should you need to. By only paying half the cost of your new luxury retirement home (paying the rest as manageable rent) you receive the balance of the sale of your home as a lump sum to spend as you wish.
