Housing Information

Masonic Housing Association specialises in the provision of sheltered housing for older people and we have 5 purpose built housing schemes located in:
• Essex (Hamilton Court)
• Northamptonshire (Palmer Court
• Buckinghamshire (Prebendal Close)
• Warwickshire (Reading Court)
• Staffordshire (Wilson Keys Court).

Day to Day

The day-to-day management of our sheltered housing schemes rests with voluntary House Committees.

These Committees provide support to the Scheme Managers, maintain a waiting list for accommodation and are responsible for operational budgets.

They also keep in contact with our tenants through regular meetings and social events.

Sheltered housing

All of our sheltered housing schemes provide purpose built self contained flats for older people who are able to care for themselves. Single people and couples aged 55yrs and over can apply.

Our housing is not restricted to applicants with Freemasonry connections, we accept applicants from local communities, overseas and the 5 Local Authorities where our developments are located.

Scheme Managers

We have Scheme Managers on site at all of schemes working Monday – Friday.  They are responsible for the management of the overall building, grounds and communal areas. As circumstances permit, they will assist our tenants with minor administrative tasks, during working hours.  They also assist with the planning, organisation and running of social events.

Our Scheme Managers cannot provide personal care or administer medication – these services must be provided by outside organisations.

Assistance

The Scheme Manager can assist with signposting tenants to Social Services, medical personnel and carers to enable tenants to live independently at our schemes.

Should a tenant be taken ill the Scheme Manager is not appropriately qualified to administer medical care, but will assist where possible, on a “good neighbour” basis.  In each flat, this support is underpinned by emergency access to the Careline system.  This 24-hour service can call relevant professionals and emergency services as necessary.

More information

Activities are organised by the Scheme Manager, the House Committee and Tenant groups, our tenants can be involved as little or a much as they wish and their privacy is always respected.

Please go to our properties and click on the scheme name to obtain further information. Details of how to apply for housing can be found within each scheme’s information and on the CONTACT US page.

Our aim is to ensure that our tenants both now and in the future live in safe, affordable, fit for purpose accommodation.
