Senior cohousing communities: an alternative approach for the UK?

This report draws on two events in Spring 2012. The first, in York, brought together people aged over 50, mainly from existing or recently formed groups interested in cohousing. The second, in Dunfermline, included representatives of local authorities and housing associations with people aged over 50. The aim of both events was to consider the lessons to be drawn from the UK and abroad in developing the Senior Cohousing Community as a model.
