LHP shortlisted for Best Older Person’s Landlord Award

Lincolnshire Housing Partnership (LHP) is a finalist for the Best Older Person’s Landlord award at the Affordable Housing Awards 2023. The awards recognise the best in affordable housing provision in the UK.

Judges recognised LHP’s range of age-appropriate housing options, support of independent living, and work with partners to provide a range of services to older people.

Their housing offer for older people includes:

Bungalows with and without alarm systems

Sheltered housing schemes with communal facilities

Extra care housing schemes with on-site support and care services

A telecare service that provides 24/7 monitoring and support

LHP work with a range of partners to provide support to older people, including Age UK, Lincolnshire County Council, and the Alzheimer’s Society.

As part of this, LHP provide a falls response service, staff for the dementia day care service, and safeguarding residents.

They help older people live independently and age well. To be shortlisted for the Best Older Person’s Landlord award is a testament to the quality of their housing and support services.

The Memory Lane Creative Arts sessions offer people living with dementia the opportunity to express themselves through art.

The Social Breakfasts provide a chance for people living with dementia and their carers to get together and socialize.
