Being comfortable at home is so important to us all. The Elders Council wants to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to make choices about their future home, whether they want to stay put, or whether they want to find something new.

Working with a range of partners, the Elders Council is organising Your Home, Your Choice – an event which will feature over 40 stallholders offering information and advice on housing and care, and a series of short presentations to help you to think through your housing options.

Whether you are an older person, a carer, a relative or a member of staff working with older people, this event is for you! Put the date in your diary and book your place for the presentations in advance using the Eventbrite links below.
