The Almshouse Association hosts webinar on Church of England Coming Home Report
The Almshouse Association hosted a webinar on the recently published Coming Home report from the Archbishop of Canterbury’s Housing Commission. The report made one of the most public and high-profile endorsements for the almshouse model in recent times.
The webinar represents the Association’s determination to see the report’s recommendations put into action by bringing together representatives of the almshouse movement and the Church. The discussion proved very useful in helping to scope out what the future relationship between both sides might look like and to plan next steps.
The Almshouse Association looks forward to further engagement between the Church and those now entrusted with enabling the report’s recommendations. We believe that we have a strong foundation due to the historic bond between almshouses and churches across the country.
We would like to say thank you to all those who attended and participated in the event, with a special thank you to our guest speakers: Bishop Graham Tomlin, Revd Jeremy Fraser, Nick Pollock and Michael Siggs.
