Member Spotlight: Blackwood Homes and Care (Preview)

In the first in our ‘members spotlight features’, we find out how Blackwood Homes and Care has been exploring new ways technology can help ageing individuals live independently in local neighbourhoods

Blackwood Homes and Care are leading on a £12.5 million project that has been funded through the Government’s Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund’s Healthy Ageing Challenge to create three demonstrator neighbourhoods, aiming to create a blueprint for age-friendly communities that can be reproduced at scale across the UK. These new, attractive, sustainable neighbourhoods could help to increase the number of years a person will live an independent and healthy life without medical intervention or social care.
