Caring for Bedford’s Growing Senior Community

Bedford is a vibrant, fast-growing town with a rich cultural heritage and expanding community. Between 2011 and 2021, Bedford’s population surged by 17.6%, from around 157,500 to approximately 185,200. Today, about 16.7% of residents are aged 65 or older, up from 15.8% a decade ago—reflecting a steady increase in both the number and share of seniors. As Bedford continues to flourish and age, the demand for trusted, personalised elder care services in the area is becoming increasingly important.
