PROCare’s Future Proofing Homes and CPD Day comes to the East Midlands on 5 November 2026. OTs, housing teams, contractors and specifiers can meet leading manufacturers, try accessible bathroom and kitchen products, attend CPD sessions and get practical advice for DFG and home adaptation projects.

PROCare reflects on a Housing 21 Resident Engagement Day and new falls prevention research to explore why accessible bathroom adaptations, resident choice and earlier intervention matter. From wetrooms and flooring to shower seating, sanitaryware and grab rails, we look at how housing can support safer, more independent living.

After 25 years in accessible housing adaptations, PROCare explains why housing, health and care need a more connected approach. Discover how Fit For Our Future and strategic delivery partnerships can make difficult bathroom, wetroom and adapted kitchen projects easier to survey, specify and supply.

As Carers Week highlights the vital role of unpaid carers, this blog explores how accessible housing and thoughtful home adaptations can help create carer friendly communities. From accessible bathrooms and wash and dry toilets to discreet grab rails and rapid adaptation solutions such as the TRU Cubicle, discover how housing providers can support independence, dignity and safer living for both carers and residents

Proactive planning for accessible home design makes housing both beautiful and functional. By incorporating adaptable layouts, smart bathroom innovations, and universal design from the start, contractors and OTs reduce costly retrofits and promote independence. Initiatives like Connected by Design and PROCare’s Fit for Our Future emphasize these inclusive practices to build dignified, future-proof homes that look great and work for everyone
