We often have birthday parties in the lounge and enjoy events throughout the year such as a summer fair and Christmas carol service. We have volunteers who come every other week, to do crafts with residents and help out with any jobs that you may need. They have quizzes, crafts, games and film afternoons. We have a communal lounge where residents enjoy coming together for activities, which they run themselves. We’re close by to bus stops, making travel across the city easy. There are also charity shops and a co-op as well as a dentist and an optician. The Firs Complex is just a short walk from the main shopping street in Sherwood, with plenty of cafes and pubs for you to try if you wish. Members of the public have visited to have a tour of the house, as it is where they were born or where their parents were born. With part of the complex previously being used as a maternity hospital, some of our residents were born here, some had their babies here and some worked here. The scheme is mixed tenure with 60% of the residents being leaseholders. While the majority of properties have one bedroom, we do have a handful of two bedroom properties, which are ideal for those who would like that extra bit of living space.

All of our properties are self-contained with their own kitchens and bathrooms. At The Firs Complex, we offer independent living in 42 properties, a mixture of both bungalows and flats.
