Later Life Moves
Move with confidence
Downsizing | Rightsizing | Moving to Retirement Living | Relocating | Moving into Care
Moving home later in life perhaps after retirement or the loss of a loved one can be understandably difficult for some people with worries and concerns about the moving process becoming overwhelming.
​
I work with private clients who are looking for support with planning and organising all aspects of a move, sometimes working with family members who need support with the move due to distance or their own work and family commitments.
I am also happy to work with referrals from Retirement Living Developers, Care and Nursing Homes, Solicitors, Estate Agents and Wealth Management Companies.

Dawn helped our parents with a downsizing move from Market Harborough to Stockport, she spent 20 hours with them over a period of a few weeks helping them decide what furniture to take and then clearing out the kitchen cupboards and utility room. She sourced and managed removals which was a big help. She organised their paperwork and created a simple filing system and helped with all the change of address notifications. 'We couldn't have done it without Dawn's help'. The whole family really appreciated her help. Mr & Mrs T
