Housing LIN Newsletter November 2010

This issue contains policy and funding news arising from the recent Comprehensive Spending Review and subsequent launch of the partnership agreement for adult social care, the DH reablement grant allocations and pledge on dementia. There is also latest news on the DH's extra care housing programme, a feature on design, and new resources from the Housing LIN. The latter includes a new factsheet on the market for private rented sector extra care, a case study on regeneration in Wolverhampton and a technical brief on fire safety. These are all essential reading for those involved in planning, commissioning, developing and managing extra care housing.
