Retirement living NEW LEASE OF LIFE Legal & General has submitted plans for a new Guild Living urban retirement development at Bath’s former Homebase site. The proposed 317 apartment complex is designed to keep older people at the centre of the community, this mixed-use development blending homes with tailored care options and multi-generational facilities, including a nursery, fi tness centre, community café, cinema, library, crafts space, shops and multi-faith room. Guild Living’s development also has the potential to free up family housing, which would contribute towards B&NES’ fi ve-year housing supply aims while improving quality of life for the elderly in the area.

Meet the maker SUZANNE HARDWICK Stylish, pure wool Nest & Burrow wall hangings add a cosy touch to any room Suzanne says: “I simply love working with unspun yarns, including pure wool and fl ax, like in this piece. The untamed nature of these fi bres enables me to work in a very organic, almost sculptural way, producing beautifully textured pieces that create wonderful focal points to cosy up your interiors. I work predominantly with non-dyed fi bres from a variety of breeds of sheep, such as Merino, Corriedale, Manx Loaghtan, Herdwick and Icelandic. It’s amazing the mix of hues available through natural fl eeces.” Suzanne works from her home just outside of Bath in the Cotswolds AONB, and brands herself Nest & Burrow; she sells worldwide, her private commissions adorning homes as far away as New Zealand, Australia and the USA. She also delivers a range of creative experiences, from beginners’ workshops to oneto-one master classes and luxury retreats.
