This resource pack jointly published by the Housing LIN and ADASS is intended to support local strategic commissioning, planning and investment decisions to help transform and improve the range of housing choices for older people.
The resource pack jointly published by the Housing LIN and ADASS provides a framework and a basket of accompanying tools for councils, public and private sector developers and providers to develop their strategic market position and take the initiative in designing and building homes that older people want, including extra care housing.

The pack supports a variety of activities including:
- how to develop an understanding of what future demand is likely to be for housing for older people
- what does the market look like now and how should it look in the future
- what are the key success factors in the service design process for extra care housing
