The changing housing and support needs of Irish people in London

Abstract

Research into the housing and support needs of Irish people in London suggests that in future years need is more likely to be concentrated among older members of the community than new arrivals. This could have important consequences for the future plans of organisations providing housing and support for this community; there is likely to be a need for more housing for older people and those with special needs such as alcohol use, along with provision of culturally sensitive support. The research was carried out in London, but other areas with Irish communities may be experiencing similar changes.
