THERE’S NO rocket science in building<br />

rest homes in <strong>Selwyn</strong>.<br />

On page 1 today we reveal another large<br />

complex is planned for Prebbleton.<br />

As the population swells there is going<br />

to be a market for all types of housing in<br />

the decades to come – three and four-bedroom houses for the<br />

influx of families, over-60s units and now retirement villages at<br />

the outer end of the age spectrum.<br />

And I suspect for many older people, it is good news rest<br />

homes are now on the horizon.<br />

A high percentage of the elderly are born and bred in the district,<br />

the thought of moving outside of the area when it’s time<br />

to move on from the family home must be a stressful thought.<br />

Not anymore.<br />
