Please note that as this property is an Almshouse we are exempt from the age/sex discrimination legislation

Almshouses are allocated to people who are facing housing or financial difficulty.

The successful applicants will be chosen by the Trustee and the decision is at the Trustee‘s discretion.

Nottingham Community Housing Association Ltd has been working with Almshouse charities for over 20 years, providing a wide range of services.

In 2008, NCHA Ltd formed a new charity, Nottingham Community Almshouse Charity, which combines seven of its Nottingham-based subsidiary charities into one amalgamated charity. This streamlines the governance and the administration of the charities and provides a vehicle for new charities to be absorbed into the NCHA Group.


Maintenance contributions
The maintenance contribution is £141 per week and is payable monthly by direct debit (the monthly amount will be worked out for you). The amount is reviewed by the Trustee annually. The amount you pay covers part of the cost of running the Almshouses and includes repairs and maintenance, buildings insurance, and the upkeep of the garden.

The maintenance contribution is the charity‘s only source of revenue; Nottingham Community Housing Association as trustee is not allowed to subsidise the cost of running the homes.

The first month‘s maintenance contribution must be paid in advance. Should your tenancy commence on or following the 15th of the month, you will be required to pay the remainder of that month in addition to the following months rent. Your direct debit will commence on the 1st day of the second full month.
