Shownotes

In this episode, we visit Brodie Court in Stevenage — an independent living scheme designed to improve quality of life for older residents while also supporting the wider housing system. Cllr Jackie Hollywell, Ash Ahmed and resident Beth Mead explain why housing for older people is critical to dignity, independence and wellbeing — and to releasing family homes so younger people can move on and up the housing ladder. Part of 1.5M New Homes: The Local Government Challenge.
