AnnotationThis Viewpoint discusses challenges the older people's housing market is facing. The future remains very uncertain and, in difficult financial times and with increased development risk, it argues that a new business model is required. It explains that the traditional extra care business case focuses on predominantly a care solution. It draws on lessons from HAPPI (Housing our Ageing Population: Panel for Innovation) and the growing evidence of the benefits of a more aspirational housing 'offer'. It questions whether we now need to look wider and offer a housing solution that provides quality homes for people of all ages. (RH).
