Dementia care

Regretfully, at the present time we are unable to offer accommodation to any new residents with diagnosis of dementia. If someone develops dementia whilst living at Whiteley, we may be able to support them depending on the complexity of their needs.

To qualify as a resident under the terms of our charity, you will:

• be 65 years or over if male, and 60 years or over if female
• have a total annual income of no more than £16,500 per person
• have capital assets of no more than £30,000 per person or £50,000 per couple
• have been living in the UK for five or more consecutive years
• have a defined housing need including, not limited to:
  • at risk of involuntary homelessness
  • medical or welfare need which is exacerbated by your present accommodation
  • currently renting privately on a shorthold tenancy, with lack of security of housing in the future.

We prioritise applicants according to need and match them to a suitable property, and in line with the stated Objects of the Charity, including:

• if you or your spouse have been engaged in commerce or agricultural pursuits.
