Strategic Review of Housing Provision for Older People in Elmbridge

The project was to undertake a strategic review of housing provision and services for older people in Elmbridge with the production of a Final Report to assist housing and service providers with their future planning. The work considered three main elements: • Establishing the current and likely future demand and need for housing for older people (across types and tenure) • Assessing the capacity of the existing stock and services to meet need and demand and identify changes to existing provision and services and facilities in the community to enable older people to live independently in their own homes • Identifying the need for various types of specialised older people’s accommodation across all tenures, and whether, how and in what form affordable housing contributions should be sought
