We are very blessed in Southwark to have organisations like Southwark Charities. Their plans to expand almshouse provision for older people in housing need are immensely inspiring 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Brilliant to see first hand the work that Southwark Charities is doing to support older residents and to hear their exciting plans to upgrade and expand affordable housing for older people in the community.

A record 65 #grants in 2024 to #community groups & #charities supporting #Southwark #older residents #wellbeing. And this from the Institute for Voluntary Action Research:
"Southwark Charities are an excellent example of how a place based funder should operate".

See you in 2025.

Delighted to host The Mayor of Southwark at our Christmas lunch for almshouse residents, charity members and Trustees. We also gave a fond farewell and best wishes to our lovely Welfare Officer, Sue Price, on her retirement ❤️
