Housing

About this theme

This theme covers topics relating to new approaches to housing provision, design and opportunities for those excluded from the housing market. Many Fellows have undertaken projects addressing this over the years including as part of our recent programme of Fellowships on housing, developed in partnership with the National Housing Federation in 2016-2018.

Blogs & conversations Improving the housing experience for older LGBTQ+ people

I’d known about the Churchill Fellowship for years, but my journey began while watching Drag Race Spain last year, where I learned about Fundación 26 de Diciembre, an organisation supporting older LGBTQ+ people in Madrid. This inspired me to apply for a Fellowship, and I was awarded funding to visit LGBTQ+ housing and care projects in Spain, France, Germany, and study online with groups in Sweden and the USA. I’m excited to bring back what I learn to improve housing and care experiences for older LGBTQ+ people here in the UK.
