Reimagining Housing for Older People in Ireland

With an ageing population, the need for inclusive, supportive, and well-designed housing for older people is more important than ever. Join us for a thought-provoking webinar exploring the future of housing and care for older people in Ireland.

Agenda:

1. Setting the scene: An overview of the key issues in older persons housing:

– Housing design
– Community connection and wellbeing
– Access to appropriate care and support
– Plus, a review of the Irish government’s plans, progress to date, and the challenges that remain.

2. What do older people want?
– Insights from resident engagement— what older people know, want, and how providers can respond effectively.

3. The finance profile
– Understanding the costs, funding models, and financial risks associated with housing for older people.

4. The Irish Landscape
– What exists today and what we aspire to — exploring a spectrum of provision and the policy and funding “asks” needed to get there.

5. Sector discussion – next steps
– What does the sector need?

Hear from experts, engage in live Q&As, and help shape the future of older persons housing in Ireland.
