When we realised that 2018 also marked 100 years of the Royal Air Force, it seemed a fitting tribute to Southampton\u2019s local heritage and everyone who has ever served with the RAF.<\/p><\/blockquote><p>When complete, Spitfire Lodge will offer private, self-contained apartments with features such as a video-entry system, lifts to all floors, a 24 hour care and support system and a Lodge Manager. Communal facilities will include an Owners\u2019 Lounge with Coffee Bar, Guest Suite, Wellbeing Suite and landscaped gardens.<\/p><p>For more information, please contact Churchill Retirement Living on 0800 458 1856 or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.staging.themediapeople.co.uk\/churchill2021\/contact\/\">click here<\/a><a href=\"[sitetree_link,id=588]\">.<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Find out the name of our new development in Portswood, which we have named in time with the 100 year anniversary of the RAF.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13771,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[230],"tags":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.4 -
