FirstPort (UK)

We love hearing residents' thoughts on what makes a happy community. Thank you to the residents at Compton Court who took the time to speak to our intern at their coffee morning. Our longest-residing resident summed it up beautifully, saying: “It’s a very safe environment. I feel comfortable here and have done for the last 22 years. It’s why I haven’t left.” https://lnkd.in/eRN7xG_p #firstportuk #propertymanagement #retirement

Great work team!    #GreatPropertyBikeRide #FirstPortUK

As we honour the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought for our freedom on this day 80 years ago, we would like to highlight some of the brilliant work our retirement residents in Luton have been doing to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day. With the support of their local community groups, they've knitted over 300 poppies and dozens of soldiers to create a remarkable D-Day remembrance display. https://lnkd.in/dx8wKxYJ #DDay80 #Remembrance

We’re pleased to share that we’ve launched a charity partnership with Tommy Club, a division of RBLI (Royal British Legion Industries), in their mission to support society's most vulnerable military veterans.
