National Supported and Older Persons’ Housing Network

Our National Supported and Older Persons’ Housing Network is a space for you to hear the latest updates, share best practice and insights on the key supported housing issues that matter most to your organisation.

This network is for NHF members providing supported housing and homelessness services. It is open to staff leading on supported housing within their organisation. The network meets quarterly and all meetings are held virtually so we can ensure that as many members as possible throughout the country can attend.

At each meeting, we will hear from housing experts, get the latest government insights, and provide an opportunity for you to share your experiences with the NHF and inform our lobbying work. There is also space to discuss the local issues that affect you at dedicated regional breakout rooms.

If you would like to join the National Supported and Older Persons’ Housing Network, receive email updates, and attend our next meeting, please contact our Admin team.
