Lifetime Homes
Criterion 2
Moving from the parking space to the home
What is required?
The car parking space should be close to the home and the footpath between the two should be level or gently sloping with no steps.
Why is this important?
It makes getting between the home and the car convenient and as easy as possible for everyone – the short distance and lack of steps or slope helps with carrying luggage or children, it makes it easier if you’re less agile, and keeps you drier if it’s raining.
