Response to story on more people living in multigenerational homes

"This research reinforces the need to make every UK home futureproofed and accessible for people of all ages.

 "First-time buyers may not be thinking about the future when they buy a home, but you never know how long they will remain in that property, who will live with them or who will buy it years later.

 “Every new built home should be accessible for everyone and we must improve the woeful condition our existing housing, ensuring all homes are safe, hazard-free and well maintained.

 “The issue is becoming ever more important. By 2041, there will be around 10 million households headed by someone aged 65+, an increase of 54% from 2016.”
