Welcome to #Jeremytalks (opens new window) and our must-read weekly bulletin, HLINks (opens new window), week-ending Friday, 17 September 2021.

This is where you can take a tour of relevant resources and events on later life housing and independent living with regard to homes and communities, health and social care, design and technology, dementia, planning matters and more.

For example, this week, we published a #HLINBlog by Lorna Cameron, CEO of Horizon Housing, who reflects on collaboration with CaCHE, HACT and Stirring University on housing adaptations study. We’re also delighted to announce that ClwydAlyn Housing Association (opens new window) are the new sponsors of Housing LIN Cymru. They are very well known to Housing LIN members and we are thrilled that they have joined the small family of Housing LIN sponsors in Wales.

We also highlight a range of items that we think will be of interest to you, including:

In other news, we would welcome Michael Gove's appointment as the new Housing Secretary and look forward to him reaffirming his department's commitment to establish a Housing with Care Task Force.

Join us at next week’s #HAPPIHour with Winckworth Sherwood on investing in places and communities to make an idea home.
