In this bite-sized episode of The Next Bit, Hannah McQueen and Mark Leishman revisit one of the most revealing moments from their conversation with retirement village lawyer Jenny Baldwin; the reality of what happens when disputes arise inside a village.
From everyday tensions and personality clashes to bigger issues around maintenance, resale delays, and behavioural concerns linked to ageing and dementia, Jenny explains how the complaints process actually works, who steps in, and what residents can do when things escalate.
It’s a fascinating glimpse into the side of retirement village life most people don’t think about until something goes wrong.
If you or someone you love is considering village living, this is essential listening.
