THE FINCHLEY CHARITIES is both an almshouse charity and a registered provider, and has been serving people in the London Borough of Barnet since 1488. With roots in the area as deep as ours, you won’t be surprised to hear that we care very deeply about the local area and the people in our community. Through our 174 purpose-built homes providing high quality housing for older people, and our grants programme and allotments, we feel that we have the resources and drive to make a real difference to the community we serve.

Despite our deep roots and long history, we consider ourselves forward-looking and a future-focused charity responsive to the changing needs of the older people in the area, and we know that the housing for older residents we provide is as needed today as it has ever been.

Trustee: We are particularly interested in hearing from those with senior experience in asset and property management gained in the housing sector.

We are open to this being your first board position and we offer support for new Trustees. We would especially like to hear from you if you have a connection to the Borough of Barnet, but we also welcome interest from those outside the area.
