AnnotationThis case study report is published to coincide with the 2016 Housing LIN annual conference, People Powered Change: a Festival of Ideas. It shows how collaborative models of service delivery for older people are now being widely adopted in the health and care sectors; and it suggests that in this respect, housing is lagging behind. Using nine case studies as examples, it demonstrates that collaborative ways of providing housing are becoming more common. These examples - when considered alongside examples from the two previous Housing LIN reports - illustrate the wide and expanding range of collaborative housing options for older people. The report emphasises that collaborative housing schemes can be produced in a variety of ways, for example, self-organised schemes, co-produced options, and market (off-the-shelf) developments. (RH).
