The Unit’s Nicole Steils and Michela Tinelli from the London School of Economics today presented findings from a recent study on self-neglect and hoarding behaviour among older people to 14 senior managers and practitioners in adult social care and housing provision. This presentation was part of a series of presentations to sites involved in the research. The study explored service responses to answer the question ‘what works in practice?’

The study was funded by the NIHR School for Social Care Research. See the project page for our publications thus far.
