Abstract

This report - Finding the rightplace to grow older - investigates how we can better understand the difficulties faced by over 4 million older people actively seeking to move home to improve their quality of life. It explores how housing strategies can be made more responsive to local circumstances and personal experiences, so that we can close the ‘rightsizing’ gap by improving the housing choices that older people have where they live. This research was commissioned by The Centre for Ageing Better, working with the Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) and their Housing, Planning and Ageing group.
