This week's HLINKs: 20 - 24 September 2021

Welcome to #Jeremytalks (opens new window) and our must-read weekly bulletin, HLINks (opens new window), week-ending Friday, 24 September 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 our newest #InspirationalAchievement feature, a multi-generational community scheme in Shaw Heath, Stockport led and designed by PRP’s Manchester studio. We are also delighted to announce that GreenSquareAccord (opens new window) is the new sponsor of the Housing LIN’s peer-to-peer discussion forum webpage.
We also highlight a range of items that we think will be of interest to you, including:
- The Workhome Project launches new website
- A new MMU/Pozzoni Architecture guide on how to address the changing needs and aspirations of an ageing society
- Useful information highlighting this week’s #NationalEyeHealthWeek
- And a free to download environmental assessment tool for Health and Care settings by University of Worcester, Association for Dementia Studies
And lastly, join us at next week’s #HAPPIHour when we take a practical look at intergenerational living with North West housing and care operator, Belong, Ready Generations, and Adrian Hill Architects about their award-winning project for Enfield Council/MTVH.
