Involve: Older people from ethnic minorities housing needs and perceptions study.

Older people from ethnic minorities housing needs and perceptions study.

What we're doing

Kirklees communities have more ethnic diversity than those in similar areas and as people get older, their housing and support needs might change. With your help, we can make sure there are homes meeting the needs of all communities. Anyone aged 45+ from (or representing) an ethnic minority is welcome to share their views on what matters when considering future housing and support. This consultation commences 26th April 2021. Please email lisa.hodgson@kirklees.gov.uk if you have any queries about this.
