Housing our Ageing Population:

Panel for Innovation (HAPPI)

Housing our Ageing Population: Panel for Innovation is a new report launched by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) in partnership with Communities and Local Government (CLG) and the Department of Helath.

The report acknowledges that with the existing number of over-60s projected to increase by 7 million over the next 25 years and much of the UK's existing housing stock inaccessible or unsuitable, the lack of good-quality homes for older people is a real concern and calls for positive action.
