AnnotationThis guide has been produced for local Abbeyfield societies seeking to build new accommodation for older people. It begins setting out the context within which the guidance has been written. The emphasis then moves on to project planning, elemental design (a "kit of parts" on specific models of accommodation, and indicating minimum standards), and general design and good practice (fire safety, services and environmental issues). (RH).
