I am definitely up for reinforcing sisterhood. But as an older woman, on balance I prefer living on my own, with my own space, physically and mentally and being able to meet up with and develop new friendships. Connection, mutual care and wisdom can be shared across communities as a whole. I shouldut my hand up and say my views have been slightly coloured by working, for many years, reviewing and remodelling many different types of older persons accomoodation/communities.
I would rather invite people in for wine and cheese rather than team and cake. My cakes are rubbish 🤣🤣.
I could imagine wanting to live like that if I was alone. I would also need that balance of alone time but it would be nice to have a community around you especially for things like cooking and general socialising!
I definitely could imagine it! I do worry about being lonely when I am older x
I’d defiantly book into the same co-housing community as you Nicola. We would have a real hoot! You could be chief interior stylist 👌💛

If I’m alone when I’m an elder woman I would definitely like to live with other elder women I get on with, and have space to myself of course 😊
