This week HLINks: 31 – 4 November 2022

Jeremy Porteus

Welcome to #JeremyTalks (opens new window) and this week's HLINks. I can't believe it is November already!

This week we were treated to two HAPPI Hour sessions. On Tuesday, over 180 people signed up to learn about the recent ADASS East Best Practice Guide on Coproducing the place we call home. And, on Thursday, we held our second session, this time featuring the new Local Government Association 'Housing our Ageing Population' report written by the Housing LIN. You can now watch both webinars here.

On the publication front, we published a new #Inspirational Achievement by Arcadis-IBI Group on innovation in out of hospital and long-term dementia care. We also featured two new reports, one by The Campaign to End Loneliness which sets out why the built environment matters for loneliness and a second report by ARCO on 'Future-proofing retirement living: easing the housing and care crises' by Professor Mayhew.

In other news this week, I was delighted to join the inaugural virtual meeting of the ESCR funded University of Stirling Inclusive Ageing Network and associated research projects and the Amar Bari, Amar Jibon (My home, my life) Steering Group meeting.

Lastly, I am looking forward to speaking at the Levelling Up conference in Birmingham next week!

Stay connected, stay curious!
