The Almshouse Association was excited to receive the latest update from The Buchanan Trust on their latest almshouses project:
Dear valued friend of The Buchanan Trust
It has been some time since we last updated you on the exciting developments across the Bosbury Estate, of which there have been many. Of note, the four, new almshouse cottages that were built last year will next month be celebrating their 1 year anniversary. Of which all four have been inhabited by veteran beneficiaries, gleaning the benefits of what the Trust has to offer.
Our most recent project is the renovation of our old dairy and stables that will provide further almshouse veteran cottages in summer of this year.
This project would not have been possible without the support from various funders, namely: The Almshouse Association, Homes England, Saffer Cooper Consultancy, The Eveson Charitable Trust, Herefordshire Cathedral, Sandy & Zorica Glen Charitable Trust, Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities and Veterans Raffle.
For interest, we have attached some progress photos and further literature.
Our plans do not stop there and subject to funding, we look forward in collaborating further with you all to build upon the support we can collectively provide our Armed Forces Community.
