Aged care does not equal a nursing home. More than 80% of Australians do not receive aged care support in an aged care facility – it could be in the family home, a retirement village or even a granny flat – so it’s worth familiarising yourself with what is available and how it works.

The Downsizing Made Simple website is here to guide your downsizing journey with great information, tools and easy-to-use resources.
