The event will take place at Hanover Scotland’s Linkwood View in Elgin on August 30 from 10am to 12pm and from 2pm to 4pm.

The open day will showcase the ‘housing with care’ developments in the area for those 60 years and over, including the new Loxa Court which is due to open in autumn.

The housing with care programme allows predominately older people, with a care need, to live in a safe and secure environment whilst continuing to live independently.

Stephen McCullough, Hanover’s care manager, said: “The open day provides us with a great opportunity to showcase our properties and what facilities we have available. The housing with care option takes away the fear many older people have about losing their independence when they move into care accommodation.”
