AnnotationFor the last twenty years, sheltered housing has dominated debates about housing and old age in Britain. This article reviews four studies published in 1995 which discuss the subject in terms of difficulties with letting, or in the context of shortage of resources in community care. These are: Alex Marsh and Moyra Riseborough, 'Making ends meet: older people, housing association costs and affordability of rented housing' (National Federation of Housing Associations); Anthea Tinker, Fay Wright and Hannah Zeilig, ' Difficult to let sheltered housing' (HMSO); Moyra Riseborough (ed.), Opening up the resources of sheltered housing in the wider community' (Anchor Housing Association); and Bill Randall, 'Staying put: the best move I'll ever make' (Anchor Housing Association).
