Retirement Living Survey 2021 – sharing our findings
Perceptions of retirement living
In 2021 we carried out the CW Retirement Living Survey 2021 of more than 300 private individuals to gauge perceptions and attitudes of consumers to retirement living.
We carried out our survey after seeing an uptick in demand for residential developments designed for retirees and older clientele, both in the market and with incoming work to the firm. We act for a number of major later living developers, including Retirement Villages, Blue Cedar Homes and LifeStory Group as well as advising a range of later living care providers across the UK.
For the sake of our clients, we were keen to broaden our insight in relation to this market and to share this with our contacts, clients, and others with an interest in this growth sector. We are pleased to say that we gathered some interesting results about demographics, perceptions in the wake of the pandemic and what is important to people when considering retirement living.
The survey certainly makes for useful reading for anyone with an interest in the sector. As you read through the results in the rest of this page, you will see several interesting findings.
It has been predicted by Age UK that by 2030, one in five of the UK population will be over 65. This raises a number of questions about the aging population in the UK. We hope the Retirement Living Survey 2021 can help give answers for some of these and will open up conversations on others.
