The Department has invited bids for the provision of our Loneliness and Community Led Housing Research.
The aims behind the research are to: evaluate the value for money and impact of housing interventions on loneliness; understand the impact of community-led housing initiatives, including cohousing, on reducing loneliness across all ages; and to explore best practice in housing schemes that promote social cohesion.<\/p>"}

The Department worked with residents to develop a vision for their homes and neighbourhoods. The Department wanted to use this vision to bring communities together to tackle people's experience of loneliness; which can have a massive impact on their wellbeing.
In February, the Government held the Better Design for Better Places national conference in Birmingham. Attendees explored how to use design to promote and support people's health and well-being through discussions, and the Government selected a case study on tackling loneliness to be presented.
In the keynote speech at the conference, Lord Bourne referenced the importance of creating places which can help to tackle loneliness.<\/p>

We are aware of reports indicating that Baha'i owned businesses are being targeted for closure, including reports of the attempted closure of a care centre in Karaj, Iran. We remain concerned about the continued harassment and mistreatment that the Baha'i and other minority groups face.<\/p>
We support the UN Special Rapporteur on the Situation of Human Rights in Iran's assessment that discrimination against the Baha'is in Iran is legally sanctioned by a lack of constitutional recognition and the absence of other legal protections for adherents of this faith. We regularly call upon Iran to cease harassment of all religious minorities and to fulfil its international and domestic obligations to protect freedom of religion or belief.<\/p>"}

The Sahaviriya Steel Industries (SSI) Task Force, funded by the Government to support individuals and businesses directly affected by the closure of SSI in Redcar, has published 3 annual reports (the most recent in 2018) setting out progress with helping the people affected by the liquidation of SSI. Further details are at: https://www.redcar-cleveland.gov.uk/SSITaskForce<\/a><\/p> <\/p>
The Task Force has commissioned the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to analyse the outcomes of workers affected by the closure.<\/p>
<\/p>
The DWP has been working to identify; quality assure; integrate and securely store and handle data on former SSI UK employees and workers in its supply chain to fulfil the commission of the Task Force. The department\u2019s analysis will innovatively combine data from the official receiver; local tracking data from collected by Job Centre Plus; DWP/HMRC administrative data; and published ONS data.<\/p>
<\/p>
The analysis is currently being finalised and will be published in due course by the Department for Work and Pensions.<\/p>"}

Feedback from Presenting Officers has contributed to our new approach which includes contacting claimants, where appropriate, to see if there is information that would enable us to change the decision ourselves. To support this, we are investing additional time for communication, evidence gather and review. This approach supports our aim - to make the right decision as early as possible - so claimants don\u2019t need to progress to the Appeal stage.<\/p>
<\/p>
It is still too early to assess the full impact of this approach. However initial feedback has been positive and the recently published PIP Official Statistics up to April 2019 showed an increase in the proportion of decisions changed at the Mandatory Reconsideration stage since the approach was implemented.<\/p>"}
