About Belong Limited

Belong Limited was established in 1991 to provide high quality, person-centred
care, accommodation and ancillary services to older people. The vision of the
Charity is that by operating a continually improving and innovative care model
that integrates services, housing and community, the Charity aspires to
redefine what's possible for the well-being of older people and give its
customers and staff a genuine voice in how it goes about it.

The Belong villages provide dementia and nursing care, as well as apartments
for independent living, within a community village setting. They provide a
full spectrum of care, from respite care to end of life care, enabling the
Charity to support older people as their needs change.

Each Belong village offers:

·      Households: typically, Household residents are frail, older
people aged 85 or above and around two thirds of Household customers have a
diagnosis of dementia.

·      Apartments: typically, Apartment residents are in their early 80s
and move to a Belong village to be part of a more vibrant community at a time
when they or their partner may need more support.

·      Domiciliary care services and specialist day care for those
needing care and support in their own home known as "Belong at Home": the
Charity has a registered home care service to provide support in the wider
community and this has often proved a feeder route for people experiencing
support from the Charity prior to moving into a Belong village.

·      Specialist day care, known as "Experience Days": this service is
open to people living in the wider community, enabling them to enjoy a day
taking advantage of Belong village facilities and activities in a supported
and facilitated way, often in order to give carers a break.

·      Exercise services: available both to residents and members of the
public that have been referred to the Charity or are connected to the Charity
in some way, each Belong village gym is equipped with state-of-the-art
equipment and technology and the Charity's fitness instructors are trained to
develop specialist, personalised programmes which have been independently
evaluated and found to improve mobility, balance, stamina and strength
according to people's needs.

·      Purpose-built buildings and grounds for access to communal
living.

·      A programme of events and activities which are attended by people
from the wider community as well as Belong village residents.

Taken together, the Charity's services offer a continuum of care and mean that
it is able to support people as their needs change, offering a 'home for
life'.
