Overview
At this Dementia and Housing Working Group-supported HAPPI Hour, we were joined by award-winning architects, and long-standing supporters of the Housing LIN, Pozzoni Architecture.
A year on from the Older People’s Housing Taskforce report, which called for age-friendly, dementia inclusive, faith and culturally sensitive homes and communities, Pozzoni Architecture share the latest examples of new dementia-friendly housing designs. In addition, we hear from Foundations - the national umbrella body for Home Improvement Agencies (HIA) - about adapting existing homes for dementia, alongside Accent Housing sharing their dementia-friendly adaptations service.
The Housing LIN proudly hosts the DHWG online and co-organises dementia-focused HAPPI Hour sessions year-round.
