Strategic Housing For Older People
Are we providing the kind of housing that older people want?
The SHOP Resource Pack offers a sector-led approach to meeting the housing demand and supply challenges for an increasingly ageing population.
It is intended to influence local strategic commissioning, planning and investment decisions and help transform and improve the range of housing choices for older people over the next 20 years.
SHOP provides a framework and accompanying tools for councils, public and private sector developers and providers.
Section A: Older People and Housing
Understanding demand and supply for older people’s housing, care and support
Section B: Developing Extra Care Housing
Detailed review of the planning, design and development of extra care housing
Section C: Bibliography and other key resources
Resources published by the Housing LIN, Government and other literature and web sources
With the support of the Housing LIN, IPC has also developed a range of SHOP taster days to support service improvement and development.
