Elderly residents 'living in fear' in Liverpool retirement village

Elderly residents are 'living in fear' at a sleepy south Liverpool retirement complex where anti-social behaviour and drug dealing is rife.

Police have been called repeatedly to Rose Court in Wavertree in recent years, with some of the elderly people living there now afraid to leave their homes amid tense and 'intimidating' atmosphere.

Run by Riverside, Rose Court is marketed as retirement living accommodation in a quiet cul-de-sac close to the vibrant Lawrence Road. It offers eight bungalows and 18 one-bedroomed private apartments for people aged over 55.
