Congratulations to WWA for picking up two accolades at the BUILD Architecture Awards 2026.

This new report from Inspiring Housing CLT and the University of Greenwich explores the feasibility of Garden Homes and Community Infill Sites as Age-friendly housing options.

Drawing on her research in rural communities, Dr Carla Resendiz explores the potential of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) to improve affordability, accessibility and sustainability in the housing sector in this Housing LIN guest blog.

This new LGA report links housing to independence, prevention and wellbeing, recognising that housing-with-care options, accessible housing, home adaptations and lifetime adaptable design should all be viewed as core components of adult social care rather than separate policy issues.

As active-members of the Housing LIN, we are delighted to announce that Archio - an award-winning architecture practice designing housing and neighbourhoods through meaningful collaboration - has officially come on board as a corporate sponsor!

It's the final week to participate in our AI survey; meanwhile we are happy to present a new HLIN viewpoint and two guest blogs, as well as highlighting the launch of the Home Adaptations in Social Housing Charter from Foundations, an award win by St Monica Trust, and our upcoming technology-focused TAPPI webinar.

St Monica Trust’s Millstream at The Chocolate Quarter in Keynsham has been named Residential Project of the Year (36 Homes and Over) at the Michelmores Property Awards 2026.

Foundations, the national body for Home Improvement Agencies, have this week launched a Charter that sets out a shared commitment between local authorities and housing associations to make home adaptations, such as the Disabled Facilities Grants process, faster, clearer and fairer for tenants.

This report from the Intersectional Stigma of Place-Based Ageing (ISPA) project examines how, when it comes to disability and accessibility, exclusion is often embedded in routine processes of the private rented sector, and demonstrates how small, process-driven changes and inclusive design can have transformative effects.

In this Housing LIN guest blog, Kirstie Garlick, Operations Manager – Extra Care at Anchor, reflects on the key messages from Housing LIN’s Bristol conference and what they mean for the future of housing for older people.
