CIH Older People’s Housing & Support Conference & Exhibition

This event will be held at De Vere Staverton Park Hotel, Daventry

Designed by experts in the sector, this year's conference programme has moved on from discussions on the likely impact of some of the key changes on older people's housing and related support. It will focus on practical implementation within an ever challenging economic and political climate. Yet again with the help of some of the most respected speakers in the sector we offer you a range of topical keynote and workshop sessions aimed at both frontline staff and service managers. Not only will these sessions reflect some of the key changes to the operating environment arising for example from personalisation but they also showcase the outcomes from the recent research undertaken by the ministerial working group in sheltered housing.

The full programme can be found at: www.cih.org/events/conferences/OlderPeople10/#About

This Conference is aimed at scheme managers, support workers, their managers and anyone providing housing and related support to older people in sheltered housing, extra-care, floating support and any other setting. It will also be of value to anyone with an interest in developing a better understanding of housing and housing related support for older people and those working in a related field providing services to older people, for example housing advice staff. The event will also be relevant for service users and frontline staff who are interested in the ways in which their service is developing as well as enhancing some of the skills they use every day.
