Invitation to participate in a survey about Support at Home

This is an opportunity to provide feedback on the new Support at Home program which took effect in Nov 2025. This has impacted many residents who receive support services to allow them to live independently.

This survey is a joint initiative of the associations that represent retirement village residents across Australia, and is open to all residents of retirement villages. The survey can be accessed by clicking on this link: LINK TO SURVEY. It will take you less than 10 mins to complete. Your responses are anonymous and you cannot be identified by your answers. The results of the survey will be published in June 2026 on this website.

RRVV Response to Retirement Village Regulations 2026

The Retirement Village Regulations 2026 were issued on 4 March 2026. RRVV has now had time to read and clarify the regulations which will be effective from 1 May 2026.

We will address matters raised in the new regulations in two parts:

a. Regulations relating to capital maintenance and operating budget matters (click here); and

b. Regulations relating to insurance disclosure, contracts, village bylaws and dispute resolution (click here).
