Since 1988, ExtraCare has opened retirement villages and smaller housing developments around our Midlands base and further south. Our priority has always been to make sure our residents enjoy happy, healthy and fulfilled lifestyles in our vibrant communities.
We essentially do three things; develop new homes, operate villages and schemes and support residents in our locations.
Our beautiful apartments are built to a high specification and boast bespoke design and quality architecture. We pride ourselves on creating superior homes in bustling locations where you can enjoy independent life.
In all we do, our ultimate aim is to create better lives for older people, by providing homes older people want, lifestyles they can enjoy and care if it’s needed.
Our charity
The ExtraCare Charitable Trust was founded in 1988 and was the pioneer in promoting and supporting independent active living for older people in the UK.
As a charity we don’t have shareholders and we don’t pay dividends. All our surpluses are invested back into the charity – helping us provide better services and support.
Being efficient, delivering good value for money and generating surpluses is the best way of ensuring we remain successful and sustainable, now and in the future.
As a charity we rely on the support of many individuals to help make our vision – better lives for older people – a reality. Volunteering, donating, fundraising and our charity shops are all essential components of our model which supplement the sales, rental and other income we generate from our residents or usage of our facilities.
