Eastbank Court open day

With cold, dark winter nights not far around the corner Aspen Retirement is extending a warm welcome to retirees by holding a special open day at Eastbank Court in Worcester.

From 11am to 3pm on Thursday, September 10 visitors will be able to explore the hotel style communal facilities, view the apartments available to buy and meet those already living in the development over a cup of tea or coffee and a slice of homemade cake.

They’ll also be able to find out how to avoid the trials and tribulations of another winter in an unsuitable home.

Liz Herring, sales and marketing manager for Aspen, says: “For many older people winter can be a troubling time. Many will worry about the cost of heating a home that’s not too large for them, while others may not go out as much for fear of slipping on fallen leaves or ice, so loneliness sets in.

“The open day at Eastbank Court will enable retirees to see for themselves how moving here could improve their quality of life no end. The apartments feature energy efficient measures that make them warm and economical to run, while excellent communal facilities mean homeowners can socialise regularly with their new neighbours. They could enjoy a chat with friends over lunch in the restaurant, play board games in the lounge or even have their hair done without having to brave the bad weather.

“Those who attend the open day could even move in to a brand new apartment before Christmas.”

Eastbank Court offers a choice of stylish, spacious one and two-bedroom apartments with prices from £184,950.

Along with the licensed restaurant and bar, the development features large a lounge for socialising; a conservatory style garden room; an activities room where they can play games such as table tennis; a hotel-style guest suite that friends and family can book when they come to stay; a library and even a hair salon.

There’s a post office, shop and chemist close by; while Worcester city centre is easily accessible by bus.

The open day at Eastbank Court takes place from 11am to 3pm on Thursday, September 10. For more information see aspenretirement.co.uk/developments/eastbank-court.
