Built in 2008 beside the Birmingham Canal, Swallow Fields offers a diverse range of services, from providing self-contained homes to support and care to residents when required.
Located centrally to Tipton, this retirement housing complex is right next door to the Neptune Health Park and just a two-minute walk from the local shopping precinct.
It also has good public transport links into Walsall and the surrounding areas, which offers residents increased independence and choices in their daily living.
Living in well-equipped accommodation with emergency cord-activated alarms, residents have peace of mind with the knowledge that any care and support needed can be provided at any time of the day or night by a dedicated, experienced team. Meals can also be provided by staff.
While retaining their own privacy in self-contained accommodation, residents also become active parts of the scheme’s community by using the extensive services or participating in a range of activities at the scheme.

Getting a placement
Accommodation can be applied for directly using the contact details on this webpage. Residents pay a weekly rent, service charge and support charge. Some of these charges are eligible for Housing Benefit.
The rent covers the accommodation and housing management costs. The service charge covers heating and maintenance of the property and all communal expense charges. For further details please get in touch with our team.
The exact amount each resident will pay depends on their particular circumstances. Assistance will be given to help applicants work out the cost to them individually and to claim any benefits to which they may be entitled.
