Anchor welcome the Government’s response to the Older People’s Housing Taskforce

The Government has today published its response to the Older People's Housing Taskforce report, recognising that improving housing for older people must be a national priority.

On the government announcement, Anchor Chief Executive Rachael Shimmin said: 

We welcome the Government’s response to the Older People's Housing Task Force and the clear recognition that meeting the needs of an ageing population requires action across housing, health and care. No single organisation can deliver the change needed alone. 

Meaningful progress will depend on government, housing providers, health and care partners, and older people themselves all working together. As England’s largest not-for-profit provider of housing and care for older people, we look forward to working with colleagues and partners to turn this ambition into action.
