According to our latest research, 49% of UK families now choose multi-generational living - togetherness is becoming a modern reality.   📻 Did you hear us on the Radio this morning? Prabash Edirisingha, consumer researcher at Northumbria University, joined our OT Kate Sheehan to discuss the rise in multi-generational living.   A multi-generational household is defined as two or more adult generations, or grandparents with grandchildren, living under one roof. "This growth reflects a combination of financial necessity, cultural tradition, and a desire for closer family support networks...Different generations often bring diverse expectations, lifestyles, and values into shared spaces - differences that can lead to tension if not thoughtfully managed. The key to success lies in communication, mutual respect, and the willingness to adapt." - Prabash Edirisingha   A homelift helps your loved ones feel truly at home. It means that they can explore every corner of the house with confidence and be part of every family moment without barriers or limitations. 📰 Read our article published today by The Property Reporter: https://lnkd.in/eyvBdTuV Uplifts. Because the people who lifted us up deserve to be lifted up in return.   #MultigenerationalLiving #HomeLift #FamilyFirst #HomeAccessibility #AgeingInPlace #HomeValue
