St Pancras Almshouse is a handsome, grade 2-listed Victorian building set on three sides of a large, peaceful garden with 38 self-contained, recently modernised one-bedroom flats reserved for older people from Camden who find themselves in acute housing need.
If you own no property and have no other housing options you could be eligible for a place at the Almshouse. To apply you simply send a brief letter or email to SPA outlining your present circumstances and fill in the application form. You can do that online here or write in or telephone to request a paper copy. Contact details are here.
The form will ask for the following information: your age and current address, the reason for your request, your ties to Camden, your current income, and contact details for your GP and for a person who can provide a reference. When a flat becomes available you may be invited for a short interview and if your application is approved you will either be admitted or placed on the waiting list.
