No. Maes y Môr will be open to people aged 18 and over who have a care and support need.

Yes. There are 2 bed apartments that are spacious and ideal for couples. When assessing the suitability of couples wishing to be considered for extra care housing we would look at the needs of both individuals and as a couple.
The main difference would be that in our extra care housing there is an on-site care and support team. This team provides services to people as agreed by their individual care and support plans.
When a vacancy arises everyone on the waiting list will be considered. The property will be offered to whoever is deemed, at the time of the vacancy, to be in the greatest need.
Consideration will be given to any escalation of risk of a person losing their independence and/or increasing level of support needed, should they remain in their current accommodation.
Your needs may change over time and the level of care and support you need may fluctuate. The teams will support you to stay living in your home for as long as possible for as long as your needs can be met.
No. The apartments are for rent only.
In most cases, yes. We will establish how people care for their pet and that they understand that internal and external areas are shared before giving permission.
Your apartment is your own home – you can go out when you want and have visitors who can stay overnight.
