Forget what you think you know about retirement housing🏡

Netflix’s The Thursday Murder Club is the talk of the town, and it’s done a brilliant job of shifting perceptions around ageing and later-life living.

It reminds us that life doesn’t stop in retirement. In fact, with the right community, it gets even more interesting.

At Hanover, social wellbeing is built into every development. Our residents don’t just live near each other, they build friendships and create new chapters together.

With a range of housing types designed to support independence, safety and community, we offer homes that fit the way you want to live - with as much privacy or social time as you choose.

This , we celebrate the older people in our communities who make a difference quietly but meaningfully.

At Hanover, our residents aren’t just living in a home - they’re helping to shape the community:

⏰Volunteering time and skills
👬Watching out for family and neighbours
💜Providing informal caregiving and support
🍃Leading and inspiring community activities

These everyday acts of kindness keep our neighbourhoods connected, while also benefitting the social wellbeing of everyone in these communities.

Let’s shine a light on the contributions that often go unnoticed, because together, everyone plays a part in caring communities.

At Hanover, we know that delivering safe, affordable and supportive homes is only possible through collaboration.

This year, we celebrate the partnerships that make our work stronger:

💜Local Authorities – working together on allocations, homelessness prevention and community regeneration.
💜Health & Social Care Partnerships & NHS Scotland – joining forces to deliver housing that supports wellbeing and independence.
💜Tenant groups, SFHA, & third-sector partners – ensuring resident voices are heard and support reaches those who need it most.
💜Developers, contractors & funders – helping us build and improve homes fit for the future.

This , we’re celebrating the friendships, connections and neighbourly bonds that make Hanover Scotland communities feel like home.

From coffee mornings and gardening clubs to resident-led social events, our developments show how strong communities play a vital role in supporting social wellbeing.

That's because every shared laugh, every helping hand and every new friendship strengthens the fabric of our neighbourhoods and reminds us all of the power of connection.

Scottish Housing Day's theme this year is about shining a light on good neighbours and communities.

The annual event, which takes place this Wednesday, highlights the challenges and successes of Scotland’s housing sector, and it aligns perfectly with our wellbeing theme of the month: social wellbeing.

This week, we’re celebrating how Hanover housing becomes more than just a place to live. Our developments are communities where connections flourish, friendships grow and residents discover new opportunities that enrich their lives.

Netflix's The Thursday Murder Club shows us just how powerful community can be, especially in housing developments for older people.

At Hanover, we pride ourselves on providing high-quality social housing that offers residents independence when they need it and company within a social community when they want it.

Starting a club with neighbours - whether it's based on gardening, puzzles, or a good mystery - can be a brilliant way to stay socially active and build meaningful connections.

Because when it comes to social wellbeing, regular connection and shared experiences make all the difference.

Which Thursday Murder Club character matches your social wellbeing style? 🔍

Each of the four protagonists brings a unique personality and background, yet thanks to life at Coopers Chase retirement village, they come together to form formidable friendships. It’s a reminder that retirement living isn’t a door closing, but a new one opening.

As Ibrahim says "anytime you wanted to be alone, you would simply close your front door, and anytime you wanted to be with people, you would open it up again. If there was a better recipe for happiness than that, then I am yet to hear it.”

At Hanover, we believe the same. Our developments are designed to support independence within a community setting, where you can enjoy privacy when you want it and connection when you need it.
