HLINks: 4-8 May 2020

In recent weeks the Housing LIN's Jeremy Porteus has highlighted the value of networking at this time and how our business continuity ensures that we can remain agile in the face of COVID-19 and target our resources to furnish you with latest information and news to support your learning and improvement requirements.

In this week HLINks, we report on:

• the new Housing LIN practice briefing (No5), COVID-19: Changes to welfare benefits
• a guest Housing LIN blog by The Pretty Good Project's Laura Wigzell
• latest government Coronavirus guidelines and relevant sector policy and practice developments
• provide a round-up tof news headlines and new resouces on housing, homelessness, design and technology, planning, health and care, and
• draw attention to next week's new blogs from the Housing LIN.

Lastly, remember to clap for carers tonight!
