The awards lunch to celebrate the best in older people’s housing – and recognise the voice of residents – is just three weeks away.
The 26 winners and 27 highly commended schemes in the 2013 Housing for Older People Awards were announced in July but the process culminates with the lunch at the National Motorcycle Museum in Birmingham on 24th September.
The lunch and celebration, which includes a speech by plain-speaking former Conservative health minister Edwina Currie, will see the 26 winners learn whether they have been awarded a gold, silver or bronze medal across 11 categories.
Although more than 150 residents and professionals have already booked their seats for the lunch, places are still available. Housing providers, commissioners and developers are also booking to attend the celebration.
The awards, which are now in their fourth year, are decided by residents, who score their retirement housing or housing with care schemes on a range of factors while playing a unique card game developed by EAC.
Bookings close on 13th September
