What Our Residents Say About Life at John Willis House
'The main thing I love about living at John Willis House is the security of the building-main doors and communal areas are fob access only. I enjoy interacting with other tenants and attending activities in the communal lounge.'
'The security of the building is what I value most-fob access to the main doors and communal areas (when they‘re working!). I enjoy organising events throughout the year, and it‘s been lovely to see more tenants joining in-especially those who never used to come down. It‘s no longer just the same small group using the lounge.'
