Overview & Agenda

This insightful HAPPI Hour webinar explores the latest research on older people’s housing preferences and decision-making. Building on the findings of the Older People’s Housing Taskforce report and the Innovate UK-funded Housing LIN/Ipsos report on Older People’s Housing Preferences, released in December 2024, this session delves into how older adults make informed housing choices.

We also feature valuable customer insights from Sovereign Network Group, a leading social housing operator, sharing their expertise and experience in serving older residents. Don't miss this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of this critical area of housing.
