Retirement Villages

Welcome to Inspired Villages

Our ethos is simple. We put the health and happiness of our residents at the heart of everything we do, with the promise of a life less ordinary for today's generation of retirees.

Everything we do is motivated by the admiration and respect we have for our residents, their families, and the lifestyle they desire and deserve.

This motivation influences every part of an Inspired village - from the service levels of our team through to the planning and design of the village itself.

National Loneliness Week

National loneliness week: Our video campaign

Nobody deserves to be alone in later life

You may have noticed our brand-new film at the top of this very page!

Did you know that over 2 million people aged 75 and up live alone and can go a whole month without talking to anyone?

We believe it shouldn't be this way. Human connection is key to our wellbeing, which is why it's at the heart of everything we do at our retirement villages. Our communities are warm and welcoming; helping people feel a sense of belonging as soon as they step through our doors and beyond.  You can read our blog here.

Monthly Focus

Month in focus

In September, we celebrated a major milestone, 7 years of Inspired Villages! Despite a bit of rain, our office in Edwalton, Nottingham, was full of energy as team members enjoyed a birthday party with pizza, drinks, cake, and great fun. Meanwhile, across our villages, September has been ‘buzzing’ with activities. We’re excited to share that Elderswell’s honey harvest is now available at our village shop. The Great Alne Park Summer Gala was a hit, and at Durrants Village, residents enjoyed sunshine, live music, and Pimms on the terrace.

Our Millbrook Village team raised an impressive £1508 for Hospiscare with a charity walk. Inspired Friendships marked its 4th birthday with a cake-cutting by Linda and Iris, and a raffle that raised £220 for Wishing Hearts. We also unveiled the new showroom at Blendworth Hills and enjoyed a stargazing event at Great Alne Park, where residents spotted the Perseid meteor shower and Saturn. Here’s to celebrating many more inspiring moments! #LifeAtInspired

Inspired olympics

Inspired olympics

At Inspired Villages, we fully embraced the Olympic spirit across our communities!

Great Alne Park enjoyed classic events like the egg and spoon race, bean bag shot putt, football dribbling, and archery. Our gold, silver, and bronze medalists were crowned after a day full of fun and friendly competition.

Gifford Lea joined in the excitement with their own Olympic games. Residents and staff soaked up the Cheshire sun while participating in traditional games, making for a wonderful afternoon of community spirit.

Over at Millbrook Village, residents and their grandchildren competed in a Mini Olympics featuring quoits, tin can alley, skittles, and the ever-popular egg and spoon race. The competition heated up, culminating in a race to the ice cream van! Meanwhile, Austin Heath celebrated the Paris Olympics’ opening with a charming French-themed night, delighting residents with a taste of France. It’s been a fantastic week of fun, competition, and community across all our villages!
