Our Almshouses
Important Notice
We are temporarily pausing new applications for our almshouses. We’ll be reviewing this regularly and will let you know as soon as we’re able to reopen applications.
Exception
We do have one exception – we’re currently accepting applications for a first floor flat at our Franchise Street site.
Our estates are varied and accommodate a variety of needs, allowing you to find a home which suits your lifestyle. But friendly visits from our resident support officer, a helpful on-hand maintenance and repairs team, and beautifully maintained gardens remain a constant across our estates. As does the sense of community we are so proud of, with purpose-built community centres on most estates, where you can enjoy a cup of tea with neighbours, take part in quizzes, or arrange trips out.

London Road
The London Road Estate, which is Grade II listed, having been originally built in 1836, comprises 22 one-bedroom houses, one bungalow, the Board Room (which doubles up as an on-site community centre), all on the edge of the city centre.
The Almshouses are a prominent historical feature of Derby city centre. But with the buildings’ history comes some features better suited to our more active residents, with steep stairs and a separate laundry room on-site.
