About Almshouses: Almshouses have a long history in Britain dating back to medieval times. In many market towns across the country, local wealthy benefactors built houses for specific groups of needy people, often those retiring from local industries. The benefactors also provided 'alms' which were money or services given to the inhabitants of the almshouses. Today there are approximately 2,500 almshouses in the UK providing accommodation for local people.
This is an exciting time to be joining our vibrant charity and to be able to make a difference to the lives of older people.
