WIVENHOE HOUSING TRUST
(Registered Charity No. 1090578)
The Wivenhoe
Housing Trust was established
at the beginning of 2002 as a result of the merger of the two former almshouse
charities, Jonathan Feedham Charity that managed the 7 almshouses in Vanessa
Drive known as Jonathan Feedham Court, and Mary Ann Sanford Almshouse Charity,
which managed the six almshouses in Rebow Road.
The objectives of the Trustees of this
housing charity are:
- to manage the existing properties
along the same lines as previously (see more below)
- and to expand the charity in order
to offer homes for more Wivenhoe people to rent, and especially the young or
those with families.
The Trust also maintains a small fund,
known as the Jonathan Feedham Charity Fund, from
which the Trustees are able to make disbursements to Wivenhoe people in
financial distress. Such grants are generally for amounts up to several hundred
pounds. Click here
