If you – or an elderly relative – require accommodation, kindly telephone the Intake Social Worker at our head office, on tel: +27 31 332-3721.

You will be invited to come in for an interview with one of our social workers and given forms to complete. There is a R5 fee for the forms.

Your application will then be assessed by the screening committee and placed on the waiting list for the specific building applied for. When a vacancy arises, the Home Secretary will contact you.

Accommodation for the elderly

TAFTA's goal is to help elderly men and women remain independent for as long as possible – and services such as Home Based Care and Meals on Wheels are designed to provide the support that makes this possible.

However, sometimes it becomes necessary for a person to move into a protective environment where they can receive friendly support, including 24-hour nursing care if necessary.

TAFTA owns several retirement complexes, homes and blocks of flats, which are available for people over the age of 60 to rent or purchase on a life right basis.

Kindly note that currently all the Homes and flats have waiting lists of various lengths.

General Requirements for TAFTA accommodation
Applicants must be 60 years and older, and must have been a permanent resident in Durban for at least one year.

Applicants should have a minimum income of a State Pension or a Disability Grant. If you do not have either of these, our social worker can help you apply.
