Understanding attitudes and perceptions amongst older people of specialist housing in an era of rising demand

这个项目将调查一个城市中不同群体对专业退休住房的不同占用的原因。它将试图揭示一系列老年人的决策过程和态度，包括那些在这类住宿中代表性不足的老年人。谢菲尔德将被用作案例研究，因为它有各种各样的住房子市场和社区。谢菲尔德市议会管理着各种各样的专业住房库存，并与住房协会和私人供应商合作，从而能够对各种市场领域的一系列方案进行全面分析。谢菲尔德市议会有一系列相关数据，包括出租和分配，可以分析不同住房计划的需求。这项工作建立在最近完成的DWELL项目的基础上，该项目与谢菲尔德市议会合作，调查老年人住房的设计。监督小组在老年人住房研究方面有丰富的经验，包括住房规划（Tait）和住房管理（Robinson）方面的专业知识。这与具有地方当局住房战略丰富经验的外部主管（danggreen）以及专家咨询团队（HCA，汉诺威住房）的投入相结合，可以与英国其他地区进行交叉检查。该项目适合城市、环境和宜居路径的交叉点，其重点是住房和政策，以及福祉、健康和社区，其重点是了解老龄化社会对场所和机构的影响。

This project will investigate the reasons for differential take-up of specialist retirement housing amongst differentgroups in one city. It will seek to uncover the decision-making processes and attitudes of a range of older people,including those who are under-represented in this type of accommodation.Sheffield will be used as a case study due to its variety of housing sub-markets and communities. Sheffield City Councilmanages a wide variety of specialist housing stock and partners with housing associations and private providers, enablinga full analysis of a range of schemes across a variety of market areas. Sheffield City Council has a range of relevantdata, including on letting and allocations, enabling analysis of demand for different housing schemes. This work builds onthe recently-completed DWELL Project investigating design of housing for older people in partnership with Sheffield CityCouncil. The supervisory team has extensive experience of research into older persons' housing, including expertise inplanning for housing (Tait) and housing management (Robinson). This is combined with an external supervisor (DanGreen), with extensive experience of local authority housing strategy, and the input of a specialist advisory team (HCA,Hanover Housing) enabling cross checking of results with other parts of the UK. The project fits at the intersection of boththe Cities, Environment and Liveability pathway, with its focus on housing and policy, and Wellbeing, Health andCommunities, with its focus on understanding the impact of an ageing society on places and institutions.
