Who Can Join Ananda Living
A resident-first Active Ageing community for adults who want independence, dignity, connection, and purpose — not an old-age home, care institution, or restrictive retirement facility.
Perhaps you are not looking for a place to be placed — but for a community where your experience still counts, your curiosity still has room, and your independence is protected. This page is an invitation to recognise yourself in the life we are building toward, not a checklist to pass.

Welcome
A Community For The Next Chapter
Ananda Living is designed for adults who see ageing as a continuation of life — a time to remain connected, active, curious, and engaged.
Our community welcomes people who want the benefits of shared living while maintaining independence, personal choices, and individuality.
If any of this feels familiar, you may already sense the kind of belonging we have in mind.

Recognition often begins with how you want to live — age is only one part of that picture.
Age
Age Is One Part of the Journey
Ananda Living welcomes residents aged 55 and above who are looking for an active, connected, and purposeful community lifestyle.
Age is one part of belonging — lifestyle, aspiration, and a desire for independence and connection matter too.
For many, the next chapter is walked together.
Shared journeys
Couples & Companions
Life journeys are often shared.
Couples are welcome at Ananda Living.
- At least one member of the couple should be 55 years or above.
- A spouse below 55 may live with their partner.
Shared community life and personal independence are not opposites here.
Everyday living
Independence & Support
Ananda Living is designed primarily for independent adults who wish to manage their daily lives while being part of a supportive community.
Residents should be able to:
- Make personal choices
- Participate in community life
- Manage everyday activities
Dignity belongs to everyone — including those who need additional support to live well.
Dignity for all
Living With Additional Needs
Everyone deserves dignity, belonging, and respect.
Residents who require ongoing personal assistance or support should have appropriate arrangements to ensure their wellbeing and safety.
For residents requiring assistance due to disability or other personal needs, an appropriate attendant arrangement may be required.
A community is made of more than residents alone.
Community roles
Resident, Family & Team Roles
Residents
Community members who participate in Ananda Living life and contribute to the community.
Families
Important partners who remain connected and involved in the resident journey.
Team Members
Resident managers, employees, and service team members support community operations but are not community residents. Team members living on campus as part of their role are not considered residents of the community.
However you arrive, there is room for your story.
Your story
Finding Your Place at Ananda Living
Every person arrives with a different story.
Whether someone is entering retirement, continuing professional work, exploring new interests, or seeking a more connected lifestyle, Ananda Living is designed to help people create their next chapter.
Comfortable with technology? It is optional.
Ananda Living proposes Himalaya, a digital resident experience for everyday support and connection. Residents can use it directly, or receive assisted access through community staff or approved family members. No resident is excluded for being less confident with technology.

If Ananda Living feels aligned with how you want to live — we welcome your interest.
