The aim of almshouses has remained largely unchanged since Saxon times: to allow older people of limited means to remain living in their local area, thereby maintaining balanced, stable communities. This is particularly important in places like the West Country where house prices and rents have become unaffordable for so many.

WHO LIVES IN ALMSHOUSES?
Residents are local older people in need. They don’t pay rent; they’re not tenants. Instead they pay a contribution towards the upkeep of their almshouse, set at an affordable level below local rental values.
