The location is perfect. Bus service at the door. Supervised by yourself and Mike, adds to the sense of security. Maintenance support by Lachie (and immediate responses on contact) is highly appreciated. I have had a taster of the Barbeque afternoon, which enhanced the flavour of family and connection. It is a secure place.
It has definitely had a strong impact on the quality of my life-Contentment and feeling of home. Coming here has lifted the burden of great dissatisfaction at not being able to provide independent space to my girl. Now she doesn’t need to see/ hear me restless/ in discomfort, especially during the nights. The layout of the flat is sufficient to cater to our needs.
I went on holidays, leaving behind my car, without any fear. Parking is secure for residents(a bonus) I sincerely feel privileged to be here
I really enjoy living here because everyone is very welcoming- it feels like home. The location is lovely too; I grew up in Edgware, so it’s nice to be close to my church and my workplace. I feel comfortable and safe living here, which means a lot to me.

We have been living in this Alms-house's for over 11 years. The love, the care and the attention to detail that is given to the property, the people who live there and specifically the Gardens are all wonderfully cared for and kept in pristine condition. Why would anybody want to live anywhere else?
The staff are very friendly and helpful. They ensure that any problems with our flats are dealt with promptly
The Almshouse makes us feel safe. If things go wrong, we know the staff will be quick to come to help
