We are a group of 26 women, almost all of whom previously lived alone. We come from a variety of backgrounds and cultures and our ages range from early 50's upwards. Although we are all very different and have our own particular interests, family connections or work, what we all share is a determination to stay self-dependent, young at heart and active.
We see cohousing as a way of living as co-operative, friendly neighbours.
Our community is actively managed by us, its residents. Everyone has opportunities to share in the life of the group and contribute in whatever way she can.
