Research

While the number of older people in society is rising, relatively little is known about their future needs. Hanover has a research programme that seeks to clarify the views and needs of older people.

Using both qualitative and quantitative methods, we use the findings and conclusions of our studies to inform our work so that we can build better homes and more effectively manage our properties in tune with what our residents want. Our research is always topical and contributes to current political and social issues, making it invaluable in our lobbying to central and local government to improve standards of living for older people everywhere.

Some of our research is made publicly available in a series of specially prepared publications which are used to disseminate important information about housing and care options for older people.
