New blog addresses patient anxiety around housing and social stressors

This new Housing LIN guest blog, written by Jon Pritchard, Associate Director of Housing and Community Inclusion at Southern Health Trust, highlights the challenges faced by housing authorities and shares what is being done to address increasing levels of anxiety around the security, cost and sustainability of housing.

Jon details how they have been piloting a new solution with Citizens Advice who have been working with their service users in one of their hospitals, which is not only addressing some often-long-standing stressors but is also creating a real sense of hopefulness within the service users.
