Planning for Retirement
Speakers: Michael Stanworth (Lexington Communications); Emma Webster (Pegasus Life); Further Speakers TBC
Chair: The Rt Hon Theresa Villers MP
As the population ages, Local Authorities must plan for housing that caters specifically to the needs of older people. However, with a focus on delivering the volume of housing needed to meet the pressures of the Housing crisis, there is a danger that the needs of this group will not receive enough attention.
This event will take a broad look at planning for specialist housing for older people. Our expert panel will outline best practice for Local Authorities seeking to plan proactively for retirement housing within their Local Plans. It will also consider whether National planning policy needs to be strengthened in order to drive delivery of housing in this sector.
