Great to see work starting on a £3m project to restore and modernise the historic #almshouses in London Road, Derby. Well done to the Liversage Trust, proving heritage buildings can be sensitively renewed to provide high quality homes. 👏

Happy photos of almshouse residents receiving Christmas gift vouchers made possible by an invested legacy left to The Almshouse Association over years ago. Wishing everyone a Very Merry Christmas and a peaceful and happy 2026 !

🎉 It’s #SmallCharityWeek!
Small but mighty, and making a big impact!
Over 75% of almshouse charities are small with fewer than 20 dwellings, but they offer much-needed homes to those in housing need. We're proud to support, guide and represent these incredible charities. Thank you for all you do!
