In this episode, we explore the often-overlooked world of almshouses — centuries-old charitable housing that continues to support older people in need today.
Our guests, Simon and Carmel, share their unique perspectives on the Finchley Charities, from its rich historical roots to its modern role in tackling housing insecurity, loneliness, and food poverty.
We hear how these homes offer more than shelter — they foster community, dignity, and a renewed sense of belonging.
