Rebecca and Emma, service manager at West Kent Housing Association, will explain how erosh has changed to reflect the challenges and opportunities facing today’s older people’s housing sector and introduce erosh’s new on-line good practice resources.
They will also showcase an example of good practice from West Kent HA which, in partnership with the Alzheimer’s Society, set up one ofKent’s first Dementia Cafes.
Key speakers at the event include erosh chair and director of health and wellbeing at the CIH Domini Gunn, Bruce Moore, group chief executive of erosh member Hanover Housing Association, and Oliver Kamm, columnist at The Times.
This conference is aimed at scheme managers, support workers, their managers and anyone providing housing and related support to older people in sheltered housing, extra care, floating support and any other setting. It will also be of value to anyone with an interest in developing a better understanding of housing and housing related support for older people and those working in a related field providing services to older people, for example housing advice staff.
The event will also be relevant for service users and frontline staff who are interested in the ways in which their service is developing as well as enhancing some of the skills they use every day.
