We have committed to funding research into housing solutions to tackle loneliness. The research will specifically explore how community-led housing initiatives, including cohousing, can help connect communities. My Department has showcased several case studies of good design, which promote social cohesion. There was an exhibition of some of these case studies during the Government\u2019s Better Design for Better Places national conference; which was held this February in Birmingham.<\/p> My Department continue to work with a range of external stakeholders to gather case study examples on how to promote social cohesion through housing design and planning. Tackling loneliness was a large focus of a community vision event that my Department hosted with 40 Birmingham residents in February<\/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. <\/p>"}

Building on existing work carried out with local authorities to provide quality assured categorised place-wide service data, these pilots will seek to test and refine data standards and taxonomies, investigate ways of collecting information to make them more efficient, accurate and sustainable, and explore how stakeholders from a range of sectors can be motivated to capture this data and keep it up to date. Data and learning will be published in order to encourage wider take-up by other local authorities by the end of March 2020.<\/p> Local authority areas in England have now been selected through an expression of interest process, details of which will be announced later this year.<\/p>"}

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>
