Description

This joint event from the Housing HLIN and Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS) looks to build on the recent relaunch of the Health and Housing Memorandum of Understanding to develop improved quality services across health, housing and adult care. It will facilitate better joint working across the Eastern region and highlight best practice to improve health and wellbeing across our communities.
