Housing providers and health and social care services are increasingly engaged in supporting those with hoarding disorder.
Join us for a 1-hour long panel discussion between Louise Borzoni (ASB officer for Sovereign Housing Association), Olive Quinton (founder of Lofty Heights CIC, a social enterprise) and Alexander Campbell (from Cornerstone Barristers Chambers).
We will consider:
- What hoarding disorder is and how it can manifest
- Practical challenges for housing providers working with tenants with hoarding disorder
- An overview of the different legal frameworks which might apply and the legal issues which might arise
There will be practical guidance and suggestions to:
- help engage people with hoarding disorder
- consider management strategies for housing providers
- guidance on evidence requirements if court proceedings are required.
Alexander Campbell, Cornerstone Barristers Chambers, recently represented the local authority in the complex and well publicised hoarding case of AC and GC [2022] EWCOP 39.
Louise Borzoni, Anti-Social Behaviour Officer, Sovereign Housing Association, a leading housing association with approximately 60,000 homes.
