This document provides guidance on the preparation of housing strategies that link housing to health, social care, and other local strategies. The guidance follows a whole systems approach which acknowledges that housing services are one of a number of other services that together make up the whole system that affects older citizens. All local authorities are required to have an older people’s housing strategy. This document provides a framework for producing a strategy using a sample template comprising the following sections: an executive summary; an introduction to the strategy, setting the local context; identifying the housing ingredients, needs and demand; how the current housing and service systems work; planning for the future; proposals and recommendations; and taking the strategy forward. This document is aimed at those responsible for planning and delivering the housing function, but may also have a wider audience in health, social care, regeneration and planning.
