An opportunity for housing

The last two years have seen an acceleration in integrated working across the NHS and between the NHS and community partners. Significant amounts of care have been moved online, and stronger relationships between health, care, housing and community services have been forged through the he pressures on health services.

Housing associations have always played a significant role in supporting the health and well-being of residents and communities. As new collaborations come together, they need to be bold in demonstrating their contribution and value.
