Finding and engaging harder to reach older people in housing settings
Practical outreach strategies to support you to find and engage harder to reach older people in housing settings.
The Good Practice Mentor Team
Thursday, August 29 · 3:30 - 4:45pm GMT+1
Online
About this event
The Good Practice Mentor team invite you to join them for a practical workshop session, exploring practical outreach strategies to support you to find and engage harder to reach older people in housing settings.
If you are a housing provider or engagement team, a member of a Tenants Residents Association (TRA), a community group or organisation keen to engage with harder to reach local people, door knocking can help you to find and successfully engage with residents less likely to attend formal groups and activities.
We’ll discuss the practicalities of door knocking practice, including arranging access and modelling safe behaviour. We’ll also share practical tips and best practice to ensure a positive doorstep conversation. How to informally capture insight from residents, create informal steppingstone opportunities to bring residents together and promote community connection.
Find places to park – no need to sign in.
