Friendship is Crucial to The Health and Well-being of Seniors
There is no doubt that having good friends and social interaction improves the health and psychological well-being of seniors!
- Friendships help give meaning to older adults’ lives by conveying feelings of connectivity.
- Friendship also provides companionship through mutual interests and shared activities.
- Friendships combat loneliness and social isolation, which places older adults in jeopardy for both poor health and low psychological well-being.
"An attractive lifestyle village with a very friendly atmosphere surrounded by beautiful tranquil gardens - highly recommended."

Designed to Support Social Interaction
Our Complex is Designed to Support Social Interaction.
This is why Settlers Lifestyle Village has designed its facility to encourage social interaction. We offer a range of amenities and common spaces for people to come together; our team is constantly looking for ways to help residents connect.
Homes are designed to support social interaction too
Being able to entertain and have people around is important for connectivity. This was an important consideration in the design of our homes, apartments and villas. The spaciousness of each property lends itself to entertaining friends and family. And if you want to host a larger family gathering or even throw a grandchild’s birthday party, you have the option of booking a private function room.
We believe Retirement villages play an important role in fostering friendships. There are numerous ways that Settlers Retirement Village supports friendships among its residents.

“When I came back from the hospital two wonderful people in the village said – ‘Mary, we’re going to do your shopping for you, and they still do my shopping. I make a list and ring them when they’re going, and they get what I need.”
