Innovation. Quality. Assurance.​

The Retirement Living Awards aim to seek out the best retirement housing projects and integrated retirement communities and services in the UK, looking for innovation, quality and assurance.

If you have a great story to tell about your retirement living developments and services the judges would love to hear it. Who knows, you could earn yourself one of the superb trophies designed and manufactured in the UK.

We are changing the Awards for 2026 and will keep this website updated with news as it is released.

For 2025, the celebratory Reception and Awards presentation for the Finalists and Winners of the Retirement Living Awards took place over lunchtime on October 8 at the Care Show at the NEC Birmingham, where James Parsons (professional actor, published author, screenwriter, designer and awards host) hosted the Awards presentation.
