Design of Homes
Our homes are thoughtfully designed to cater specifically to the needs of individuals over 60. Each Court typically has a Court Manager available during normal working hours to provide essential background support to tenants. For added peace of mind, all homes are equipped with emergency alarm systems. Should additional assistance be necessary, the Court Manager can coordinate with relatives, friends, or the appropriate Social Services Department.
Our homes are self-contained, offering a comfortable living space that includes a lounge, bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom and toilet. The flooring is covered with tiles or cushion flooring for ease of maintenance and comfort. To ensure a warm and cozy environment, all homes are centrally heated.
This comprehensive setup ensures that tenants can enjoy a secure, comfortable, and independent lifestyle.

In addition to these communal areas, each Court features a well-being room, where tenants can engage in activities that promote physical and mental health.

Social Programme
At Agamemnon Housing, we understand that loneliness can significantly impact the well-being of older adults. To address this, we prioritise creating a vibrant community atmosphere through a variety of social activities within our courts. We believe that fostering connections and promoting a sense of belonging are essential for our tenant’s happiness and health.
Each Court offers a comprehensive program of social activities tailored to the size, location, and makeup of the community. Regular coffee mornings provide a relaxed setting for tenants to chat and connect. Bingo sessions and quiz nights offer fun and engaging ways to socialise, while horse racing nights add a touch of excitement. Outdoor barbeques and fish and chip suppers bring tenants together for enjoyable meals and conversations.
Our goal is to ensure that every tenant feels part of a supportive and lively community, where they can build friendships and enjoy a fulfilling social life.
