Health and social care provider, Radis, has taken over the care provision at a Sanctuary Supported Living service in Cheltenham.

Radis will now be offering care and support to the residents at Middleton House in Leckhampton.

The retirement community gives older residents, and those with long-term care needs, the option to live independently, with the reassurance of on-site care in their own homes, should they need it.

Tracey Milligan, retirement communities manager for Sanctuary Supported Living at Middleton House, said: "Everyone deserves to enjoy an active, fulfilling and independent retirement, but we know that for some people, living in their own home can be difficult to manage and it can be lonely.

"At Middleton House, residents live in their own apartment, but with the peace of mind that a dedicated team is on hand 24 hours a day."

Paula Hoggarth, group operations director at Radis, said: "We're really looking forward to delivering outstanding care to the people of Cheltenham. We will continue to build a strong sense of community where residents can benefit from our services and live with choice, control and independence."

Middleton House offers its residents a full range of support, including housing management, correspondence and general household maintenance from the Sanctuary Supported Living team and in-house care for specific health conditions, mobility issues or personal care, from Radis.
