AnnotationBaroness Andrews of Southover writes in her capacity as Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG). The Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM) in 'A sure start to later life' (2006) committed the Department to prepare a housing strategy. This keynote article sets the context of past policy and likely future housing need. It refers to 'Homes for the future: more affordable, more sustainable' (DCLG, 2007), which introduces the concepts of the "sustainable" community and lifetime neighbourhoods. The intention is to allow people to live independently, and prevention and personalisation are part of that agenda. (RH).
