INTRODUCTION
 

Welcome to the Foundation of Edward Storey. For more than 300 years, the Foundation has been providing help and accommodation to ladies in financial need and today we offer a number of services to those living in Cambridgeshire, or who have a professional connection to the Church of England. We have a range of sheltered accommodation available, from self-contained bungalows with a warden service, to a residential home with 24-hour care, and we also provide grants and loans to women in financial difficulty.

Please feel free to browse through our web site, and do not hesitate to get in touch with us if you feel we may be able to be of assistance to you or someone you know.

OBJECTIVES OF THE CHARITY

The Foundation is registered with the Charity Commission (Charity Number 203653) and has the following objectives: -

1. To provide various levels of sheltered accommodation for elderly ladies who fall within one of the following categories:

  • a. Clergy women and the wives or widows of clergy of the Church of England.
  • b. Unsupported women of Cambridgeshire.

2. To provide grants or loans for the benefit of residents or others who are in hardship or distress, provided they are living in Cambridgeshire or are closely connected to the Clergy of the Church of England.

Occupation of accommodation provided by the Edward Storey Foundation is by way of a "licence" which is granted subject to compliance with the terms and conditions set out in the Resident's Handbook; copies of the Handbook can be obtained from the Clerk.

All applications for both accommodation and grants are subject to selection criteria and all decisions are at the discretion of the Trustees.
