More time for the part you enjoy.
A move can be about more than leaving a house behind. It can be about making room for the things you would rather do, with help for the everyday jobs and support when you need it.
At Amica Taunton, the setting can range from an independent townhome to a suite with dedicated care. That makes the conversation about your next home a practical one: how much space do you want, what would you like someone else to take care of, and which support would make your day easier?
The suites are designed with accessibility in mind. Easier-to-use doors, generous circulation space and supportive bathroom fittings are part of the published design. Your furniture, familiar belongings and favourite chair can help make the space feel like yours.
Then there is life outside the door. Amica’s activities program gives residents a choice of things to join, with household help and scheduled outings making time for the enjoyable parts. You do not have to fill every hour. A quiet day is still your day.
