Outstanding Pozzoni senior living schemes receive award nominations

Three innovative senior living schemes designed by Pozzoni Architecture, including Manchester’s Village 135, have been shortlisted at the Pinders Healthcare Design Awards.

Nominated in the Care Village category, Village 135 provides 135 extra care apartments split across two buildings, connected via an enclosed glass footbridge and is widely regarded as a one of a kind development due to its on-site facilities and creative design.

The scheme includes a community hub with a café, hair and beauty salon, roof terrace and guest suites for over-night visitors, amongst other facilities to help encourage community integration and keep residents active and independent.

Village 135 creates the feel of a high-end residential development but benefits from 24-hour access to on-site support. It is also designed to meet Home for Life standards, meaning residents will not have to relocate in the future, should their care needs increase.
