In this new Housing LIN guest blog, Professor Roy Sandbach OBE, Technology for our Ageing Population: Panel for Innovation (TAPPI) inquiry Chair and former Director of the National Innovation Centre for Ageing at Newcastle University, reflects on the use of technology and remaining independent, for longer especially when immediate care provision isn’t provided in the first instance.

On the back of last year’s TAPPI Inquiry report, Roy champions the subsequent ten core principles and argues that constructive dialogue and delivery are two key components to meaningful innovation that will be explored as part of Phase 2, funded by The Dunhill Medical Trust (DMT) and supported by the Housing LIN and the TSA.

He further shares his own “wish-list” for what should follow the outcomes of the work.
