Strategic Housing for Older People: Planning, designing and delivering housing that older people want

Reference
Our response to an ageing society is shaped by widely-accepted principles. In 2010, the UK Department of Health recognised this by pledging to update its extra care housing toolkit and offering local authorities £20,000 each to encourage them to produce robust housing with care strategies. This document fulfils the Department’s pledge – and goes further by providing a comprehensive analysis of the issues local authorities and their partners need to consider in developing these strategies. It also outlines the range of housing with care options that should be available to older people.
