We are putting our customers' wellbeing at the heart of our plans with the re-launch of our intensive housing management service, Live Well.

The Live Well service, formerly known as the Independence service, is available to any FCHO customers who need additional help for just £9.88 per week - providing you and your families with peace of mind and regular contact from one of our dedicated advisors.

Live Well advisors are trained to act as a ‘one-stop-shop’ for customers in any areas where additional assistance is needed. Your advisor is also equipped with the knowledge and skills to signpost you to other services that you may be interested in. These are services which can help tackle feelings of isolation or loneliness and help you to become involved in your neighbourhood, such as local community groups or initiatives going on where you live, even attending with you at first to help you build up confidence.

Vicky Campbell, our Live Well Service Manager, said: “Now more than ever, many people need that little bit of extra help and we’re delighted to be able to offer this at such a low cost.

“Absolutely anyone who lives in an FCHO home can access Live Well. There’s no age cut off, no obligation to sign up for a set period and most importantly, no judgement.

“We’re a housing association but often, providing a roof over someone’s head is just not enough, which is why we go over and above for our customers. The Live Well team is made up of some of the most caring people you could ever meet, who genuinely thrive off helping our customers to get the best out of their lives.”

Speaking about his dedicated advisor Suzanne, Live Well customer Terry Hall, aged 63 said: “Suzanne brings happiness to my life. She brightens up my week every time she comes. We talk about every subject going and we’ve got a lot of things in common – I just really enjoy her company and the help she gives me.”
