Manchester City Council has announced Anchor Hanover – England’s largest not-for-profit provider of housing and care for people in later life – has been chosen as a preferred partner to deliver the scheme.
The upcoming LGBTQ+ project will deliver more than 100 apartments for people aged 55 or over. Anchor Hanover’s Extra Care housing scheme will offer care, catering, and other lifestyle services to aid elderly residents.
The extra care facility in Whalley Range, South Manchester, will be the first LGBTQ+ older person’s housing project that is co-produced with LGBT+ Foundation and the local Manchester community.
