| Annotation | This report sets out the key policy and practice issues that are arising as a consequence of an increasing older population, rising disability levels, the growth in owner occupation (particularly amongst lower income groups), and the availability of statutory help with home adaptations. It analyses key demographic, health, disability and housing trends, and estimates possible future need for adaptations and related financial help. Emerging practice and policy issues are discussed and the challenge ahead set out. (KJ/RH). |
