This week's HLINKS: 11 - 15 October 2021
Welcome to #Jeremytalks (opens new window) and our must-read weekly bulletin, HLINks (opens new window), week-ending Friday, 15 October 2021.
This is where you can take a tour of relevant resources and events on later life housing and independent living with regard to homes and communities, health and social care, design and technology, dementia, planning matters and more.
For example, this week, we published a joint Housing LIN guest blog by Matter Architecture's Roland Karthaus and United for All Ages' Stephen Burke on places of social and economic exchange.This is ahead of next week’s extended HAPPI Hour session on Intergenerational Living on Tuesday, 19 October 2021.
And if you missed it, you can now access the recording and slides from this week's HAPPI Hour 'From Passivhaus to Active Ageing'. We are delighted to have received such excellent feedback:
- Informative and super useful. Covering different angles to an important and complex subject.
- A great format to pick and choose from some really well presented informative content.
We also highlight a range of items that we think will be of interest to you, including:
- New two-part BBC Two programme called 'Dementia & Us' (opens new window).
- Skills for Care's State of the Nation Report on the The value of adult social care in England (opens new window)
- The new Welsh Government's strategy, Age friendly Wales: our strategy for an ageing society (opens new window).
And lastly, looking ahead, we are really excited that we are quickly closing in on the launch of the TAPPI Inquiry report. Chaired by Professor Roy Sandbach OBE, and funded by the Dunhill Medical Trust, we invite you to join members of the TAPPI Expert Panel and those who gave evidence on Tuesday, 26 October to learn about the 10 guiding principles and recommendations in Phase One of this influential project. You can sign up to attend, here.
