Testimonials

Hearthstone staff were thrilled to win the Andy Ludlow Award in 2012 in recognition of the innovative approach taken to assist survivors of domestic abuse in the borough and help them avoid becoming homeless. The prize money has enabled us to support more survivors and enhance the service we offer.


As a Haringey council service, this award was especially poignant for Hearthstone as Andy was a much loved and respected director of housing and social services in the borough for many years. He was a pioneer in taking services direct to the people who needed them, so we were honoured to win an award that has been set up in his name. Denise Gandy, Hearthstone
