Chichester, Worthing, and Horsham are particularly popular among older adults because of the selection of homes available. Many are rated 'Outstanding' or 'Very Good' by the CQC - the highest two ratings a care home can receive - meaning the care provided for the residents carers and registered nurses goes above and beyond.

While parts of West Sussex are peaceful and rural, there's plenty of accessible public transport for getting around, such as step-free railway stations served by Southern Railway and frequent bus services. This also means easy access to wonderful landmarks like Arundel Castle (which has wheelchair access) or Chichester Cathedral (with guided tours).
