COVID-19 has created unprecedented challenges for sheltered, supported and extra-care housing. Protecting vulnerable or ‘at risk’ residents, redeploying staff and procuring PPE has become a priority to ensure service and business continuity.
Join Westminster Insight for our inaugural Sheltered Housing Digital Conference to hear from leading
local authorities, housing associations and
third sector organisations on the impact of COVID-19 to
residents, costs, and lettings.
Our afternoon keynote session will be delivered by,
Jonathan Walters, Deputy Chief Executive from the Regulator of Social Housing, on how a stronger regulatory framework could improve the
longer-term quality and condition of sheltered housing and retirement schemes.
Consider the challenges of housing an ageing population including
integrating health and social care, accessibility, and flexibility for residents. Tim Hoyle from Central Bedfordshire Council will share initiatives to help improve the standard of living for older people and people with disabilities, enhancing their quality of life.
Understand how COVID-19 has accelerated the
implementation of technology in sheltered housing, explore how innovation could help to
boost the health, well-being, and independence of your residents. Sheltered housing providers such as
Anchor Hanover and Riverside will discuss how to identify people at risk of social isolation and develop
person-centred interventions to reduce loneliness.
