Established in 2017 through a partnership with Legal & General, Inspired Villages develops later‑living communities in suburban and rural UK locations. Each village combines beautiful, age‑appropriate homes, flexible third‑party care, and a vibrant wellbeing programme that helps residents stay independent for longer.
Inspired Villages has integrated Cubigo’s cloud‑based platform into every new and existing community. Residents, families, and staff now access activities, dining, maintenance, housekeeping, transport, payments, and more through one intuitive interface—eliminating paper workflows and unifying data.
The partnership between Inspired Villages and Cubigo is focused on integrating Cubigo's technology into Inspired Villages' retirement villages to provide a comprehensive and seamless living experience for residents.
“Cubigo is really easy to setup, implement and configure as our communities grow. The Cubigo team have worked with us to adapt the product to work for our specific needs, and they are always helpful, quick and supportive of our needs. Most importantly Cubigo has been easy for our residents to use, and the engagement and adoption rates have been very high, helping us operate more efficiently.” - Ben L., Head of service delivery at Inspired Villages
Cubigo teamed up with Inspired Villages to design features that speak directly to the UK retirement market. Together, we rolled out Cubigo’s Point of Sale system across 13 villages, gathering feedback through workshops, product calls, and on-site visits. This co-creation approach meant the software fit local workflows from day one. Staff simply enter orders on an iPad, and every department, from kitchen to café, sees the request instantly.
“The platform is fantastic and I would recommend exploring if this is the right system for your community. The bespoke support, and professional look and feel of the platform (apps, digital screens, EPOS etc) is brilliant and helps us run our communities more efficiently. Cubigo is now one of our key partners and we are working with them to roll out the system in more communities.” - Ben L., Head of service delivery at Inspired Villages
The shift to digital ordering now saves teams hours each week and removes manual mistakes. One platform handles menu management, table bookings, take-out orders, and table-side payments, while built-in metrics keep losses low and reporting consistent across the group. Admin teams spend less time reconciling invoices because charges flow automatically into the billing system, MRI, and accurate stock data cuts the guesswork from monthly counts.
For residents, the change is just as noticeable. Servers can check dining preferences and allergies on the spot, send individual meal waves to the kitchen, or add notes that update each resident’s profile. With every service from housekeeping to maintenance also billed through Cubigo, residents and staff can track spending in real time and even arrange home-delivery meals down the line. The result is faster service, clearer insights, and a single, future-ready platform that keeps village life running smoothly.
Inspired Villages receives a continuous data feed from Cubigo, aggregated across all live modules. The BI team uses this dataset to build comparative dashboards that highlight trends and outliers at the village, regional, and group levels. Leadership can spot where activity participation is rising or revenue is lagging, adjust staffing or menu planning, and prioritize capital projects based on real‑time evidence.
