The Almshouse Association
Represents 1,700 independent alms-house charities in the UK, providing homes for more than 35,000 people.
There are of course many fine alms-house buildings dotted all over the country, but few people realise how vibrant and progressive the alms-house movement is today. The Association assists charities to modernise and update alms-house dwellings – some of which date back centuries and may be listed buildings – to provide 21st century living while preserving our rich national heritage; and supports the development of contemporary, purpose-built flats and cottages, such as those provided by The Charity of Mrs Mabel Luke. Such projects are eligible for project management by its sister organisation, Alms-house Consortium Limited, which can also help to access public funds.
