Reading time: 2 minutes
Angela Currie
“If we don’t grab and grab with both hands that prevention agenda, do more now, given we know what’s coming our way from our demographics, then we are going to be in a much worse state than we are now in 10, 20 years time.”
Kieran Findlay and Jimmy Black continue their exploration of the current issues surrounding social care and accessible housing with Angela Currie, the chief executive of Hanover Scotland.
Angela talks about the difficulty in forging the cross-sector relationships required to deliver the level of service and quality of homes to its older residents, particularly with regard to procurement and strategic partnerships.
We look ahead to the results of the Scottish Housing Accessibility Standard consultation and look back on the legacy of the late Julia Fitzpatrick.
Hanover has recently come on board as a sponsor for the event, which will take place at the V&A Dundee on September 26th
