Accessible supported living — the right home for the way you move
Mobility isn't one thing. Some people walk a little more slowly; some can't manage stairs; some get around by wheelchair. So "is it accessible?" has one honest answer at GrandyGo: we match you to the facility that fits how you move — and arrange your apartment around your needs.
From a little difficulty to full wheelchair use
Difficulty with stairs or getting out of a chair, needing a frame, and relying on a wheelchair are different points on the same scale — and stairs, in particular, are one of the biggest fall hazards in later life. A home that's right for one person can be unsafe for another. That's why we don't offer one building and hope it fits; we offer a choice, and help you find the one that's genuinely right.
You can walk, with a little difficulty
Steady on your feet but slower than you were, and a short flight of 5–6 steps is still manageable with a handrail.
A comfortable apartment in one of our facilities where a few steps are no obstacle — with handrails, good lighting and help on hand.
Walking is hard — stairs are out
You get around on your feet or with a frame, but stairs have become too much, or too risky. Falls on stairs are one of the biggest hazards in later life.
A ground-floor, step-free apartment with level or ramped entry, so there is not a single stair between your front door and the sea-view terrace.
You use a wheelchair
You rely on a wheelchair for mobility and need a home where every room, every doorway and every threshold simply works — no edges, no steps, no awkward turns.
A facility built entirely on one level, fully step-free and barrier-free: level flooring throughout, wider doorways, room to turn, and a wet-room bathroom.
Not sure which is you? That's exactly what our free call is for — we'll work it out together, honestly.
The accessibility we build in
Step-free & ramped entry
Level or gently ramped thresholds so there is no step to trip on or lift a wheelchair over.
Level floors throughout
Smooth, even, non-slip flooring from room to room — no lips, rugs or sudden changes of level.
Wet-room bathrooms
A fully waterproofed, step-in-free shower with a seat and grab rails, designed for safe, dignified washing.
Wider doorways & turning space
Doorways and rooms sized so a wheelchair or frame passes through and turns comfortably.
Handrails where they help
Grab rails and handrails by beds, bathrooms, corridors and any change of level.
Help always on hand
A nurse on site around the clock and a call system in every apartment — safety never depends on being able to move fast.
We get it right before you arrive
On your free call we talk through how you move — walking, balance, stairs, a frame or a wheelchair — and how that might change over time. Then we recommend the facility and apartment that keep you safe and independent. If your mobility changes after you move in, we review your plan and, where needed, move you to a more suitable home. Your home should fit you — not the other way round.
