HAPPI Hour Webinar - Exploring designs for new dementia-friendly housing and services to adapt our existing homes
Join us at this Dementia and Housing Working Group supported HAPPI Hour where will be joined by award-winning architects, and long-standing supporters of the Housing LIN, Pozzoni Architecture.
Overview
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 will be sharing the latest examples of new dementia-friendly housing designs. In addition, we will hear from Foundations - the national umbrella body for Home Improvement Agencies (HIA) - about adapting existing homes for dementia and an award-winning HIA on their dementia-friendly adaptations service.
