HAPPI Hour - Delivering specialist housing in a climate of growth: Planning policy and practice developments

Event date

Overview

Against the backdrop of the Older People’s Housing Taskforce (opens new window) and its report published last week, containing a number of important recommendations on planning, this HAPPI Hour is extremely timely. It will:

  • highlight the latest policy and legal developments at a national level
  • explore how planning plays an important role in securing healthy homes and communities
  • draw attention to relevant tools to do so
  • and share local examples on making the case to planning on building homes for an ageing population.
