Homelessness among the children of the windrush generation: the effects of recommendation/policy on health and wellbeing and accomodation provision

1. Aims and Learning Outcomes In fulfilling the requirements for this piece of coursework, you will have:

• Investigated and appraised the impact of housing (and local environments) on the health and wellbeing of a defined community.

• Critically reflected on a range of factors affecting the housing status of your identified community.

• Critically reviewed strategic approaches designed to meet the housing (and local environment) needs of your defined community.

Select a defined community and critically examine the effectiveness of intervention(s) and/or strategies relevant to housing needs which promote health and wellbeing.

This is an individual piece of work that should be presented in article style, suitable for publication in a professional journal. It may therefore be presented in a suitable article format (but no more than two columns), including photographs or other illustrations, as if ready to submit to a journal for consideration.

You can refer to the workbook (which you can find in the Moodle web pages) on writing for publication, ensuring that you write for a relevant professional journal and NOT for a peer reviewed or scientific journal – therefore your article must NOT contain an abstract.

• The community you choose must be clearly defined (e.g. older people; gypsies and travellers; the homeless; people with a disability; migrants).

• You should indicate why you have selected this community with reference to health and wellbeing needs.

• You should critically examine how and why these needs might be effectively addressed through intervention(s) and/or strategies relevant to housing; and

• Reflect on the extent to which intervention(s) and/or strategies have been effective. The work should be 2500 words, excluding references/bibliography (which must be included). You should clearly identify the word count (number of words in your article, excluding reference/bibliography lists) on the title page.
