This week's HLINks: 11 - 14 April 2022

Welcome to #Jeremytalks (opens new window) and our must-read weekly bulletin, HLINks.
Due to the Easter bank holiday weekend, we are publishing HLINks a day early!
In this week's edition, we draw attention to Jenny Katurpelis’ new guest Housing LIN blog in which she explores mutual relationships and their benefits and challenges to planners.
We also remind readers that the deadline to supply evidence to the current APPG on Housing and Care for Older People Inquiry, ‘Making retirement living affordable: the role of shared ownership housing’ is 4 May 2022.
And remember, you can also apply to become one of the Dunhill Medical Trust TAPPI2 “testbeds” (opens new window). The deadline for submissions is 16 May 2022.
And in other news that caught my interest, we signpost to:
- The Dunhill Medical Trust funding awards announcement: Building and developing suitable living environments and communities for an ageing population
- A Home Renaissance Foundation report: The-Impact-of-Technology-in-the-Home (opens new window)
- A RIBA book (for sale £35 plus p&p): The Happy Design Toolkit: Architecture for Better Mental Wellbeing (opens new window)
- The Department of Health and Social Care Guidance: Hospital discharge and community support (opens new window)
