Facts and Figures
 8,578 people with a learning
disability (LD) were referred to
LA for housing support in
2011, joining 10,000 others on
the waiting list.
 29,000 adults with a LD live
with parents aged 70+, whilst
only 25% of these have LA
planned alternative housing.
 Older people tend not to move
and currently represent 57%
of household under-
occupation
 Older social tenants are not
subject to “spare room
subsidy”. It is estimated that
by 2026 there will be over 10
million empty bedrooms in the
homes of the retired.
 Only 10% of specialist
housing shall have on-site
care provided,
BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON DEMAND AND SUPPLY
The majority of the housing market is currently focused where the least growth shall be.
To 2029 the population aged 75+ is
projected to rise by 47% in urban
areas and by 90% in rural areas.
The bulk of extra households are in the
age groups 60+, with limited change
between 20 and 60 year olds.
New supply of OP
housing
OP build rates are lower now than in the 1980s by a factor of 3 or 4.
Supply of older persons housing for sale at its lowest for 30+ years –
despite 75% of older people owning their own home.

(funding and supply)
 NAHP investment of £1.017 bn in specialist
housing from 2008-2012
 Supported delivery of 18,000+ specialist homes
– 57% for Older people
 Additionally,
– 1,500+ PFI extracare units
 Internal VOPAG group continues to review and
advise on this agenda
– Recently refreshed, now includes DCLG (Terrie
Allafat), DoH (Jon Rouse) as well as LGA (Lord
Best), public, private and 3rd
sectors

Historic HCA delivery
for older and vulnerable people
 £4.8bn AHP - 9.5% (indicative) supported/older
persons housing
 14% of programme delivered to March 2014
were for supported housing and housing for
older people:
– 60% for older people
– 40% for vulnerable people
– Almost all affordable rent (limited take-up of
specialist LCHO products)
 Not just about SH……..
– 45%+ of on-going affordable homes allocations
include someone with a degree of vulnerability
– 10%+ lets go to older people (aged 65+)
– c30% of all completed NAHP/AHP homes are
Lifetime homes, c12% wheelchair accessible

2011-15 Affordable Homes
Programme (so far……)
Note: HCA and DCLG CORE data.
 £3.3bn for affordable housing up to 2018
 To date £886m allocations

TRENDS IN INVESTMENT FOR VULNERABLE AND OLDER PEOPLE
OP/VP delivery figures from AHP have declined from the height of NAHP delivery, but only in line with overall mainstream delivery. Total output
from AHP for OP will be 59% below NAHP. Output for VP housing swill be 80% below NAHP. CASSH however will improve these figures to some
degree.

overall programme, however there is a significant move from VP housing to OP housing

Programmes relate to the year of allocation rather than completion
Demand vs Supply for
specialist supported housing
High level estimates might suggest a supply gap of up to 45k
units a year of specialist housing suitable for people with
varied support needs.
Supply / demand gap
20k-45k units pa
 High level estimates might suggest that even with CASSH funding continuing there is a supply gap of 20k to 45k units
a year of housing catering for people with support needs.
 Some demand may catered for through adaptation and floating support, churn in existing units, or other alternatives
13
 Some existing VP/OP stock outdated and mismatched with demand
– Demolition of unsuitable/un-lettable (eg design, location, access to care/family)
• c20% of SH non-self contained or shared, 60%+ one-bed
• HCA part-funded refurbishment of 1,000+ units of SH through NAHP
 New stock and housing typologies also face challenges
– Reductions in revenue funding
– Welfare reform impact on some schemes [tbc]
– Move away from residential care toward floating support and/or extra care
– Sustainability of some models questioned (eg retirement villages)
Suitability of existing stock

“As we know, most people want to be independent in their own
homes and as the population ages, more and more of us will need
housing that supports us to do that. ..…
These will be tailored to people’s needs and will help them to
remain active as long as possible without the need of going into a
care home…..”
