Belong is, above all, inclusive, in that we want everyone living or working with us to feel a sense of belonging and ownership as a valued and important member of our community. We know we’ve succeeded when residents and colleagues report that being in their village is ‘home from home’.
As a not-for-profit organisation, Belong’s charitable objectives focus on providing high quality support and accommodation for older people, primarily through our vibrant community villages and bespoke home care service. We reinvest any surpluses with a view to continuously improving our provision and we are always exploring new opportunities, technologies and ideas that could make life better for those living with us.

Belong Chester’s official opening sparked national and international interest in the ground-breaking results being witnessed at our intergenerational care village, where older people and young children live and learn together.
Close collaboration with our partners, Ready Generations, who operate the Nursery in Belong Chester, ensures that intergenerational opportunities are embedded in daily life. From a multi-generational choir to ‘prambles’ along the canal, and storytelling to dance workshops, there is always plenty going on, as well as simple pleasures, such as gardening and dining together.
