HLINks Weekly: 22 June 2026

A quick reminder that our 'State of the Nation' survey, in collaboration with HCR Law, on artificial intelligence (AI) in specialist and supported housing is still open.

As AI tools become increasingly embedded in housing, care and support services, we want to understand how organisations are using them, the opportunities they present and the challenges they raise.

Your insights will help build a clearer picture of AI adoption across the sector and inform future learning, guidance and shared practice.

If you haven’t already taken part, we would be grateful if you could spare a few minutes to complete the survey by 10 July 2026. Thank you!
