Netherlands-inspired care village will be 'first of its kind' for Greater Manchester village
A Netherlands-inspired 'care village' which will allow residents to move between homes has been given the green light by Wigan Council.
Millennium Care, the provider that runs both Chorley Road sites, explained that this latest development would help to improve the community feeling of the area and reduce loneliness.It is hoped this space could be used to provide space for local businesses and encourage the use of local products and services, hosting space for a cafeteria, grocery shop, hairdresser or a Care Village IT Hub.
"The hub will bring exciting opportunities to our residents by linking the three homes on the current site to each other and the local community; while also providing opportunities such as intergenerational activities which have been proven to be hugely beneficial for all involved.” The idea behind this is to allow residents to move between homes as their condition changes providing a continuity of care. Residents can remain in a familiar location with familiar people which reduces the risk of transfer trauma.
