Legacy
We trialled our first Variety Show in June and held a second one in October. This club gave our neighbours the chance to showcase their talents and an opportunity to be more involved in running a club for others to enjoy.
As summer draws to a close, we’re reflecting back on what a jam-packed summer it’s been for our Outreach programme. This 'Hot Outreach Summer' has seen highs of 40 degrees which has made for some beautiful, albeit sweaty, Outreach events!
The cost of living crisis will plunge the UK further into a loneliness epidemic.
South London Cares has just had its eighth birthday party, find out what we did with the neighbours to celebrate...
“If I were to pick 3 words to describe Dave, they would be: Stubborn, Cheery and Comedic. Probably in that order ;)” says Dave S. Meet Dave and Dave, mates about town in South London.
Meet Tim, who's recently joined our Love Your Neighbour programme.
Welcome to a world of heart-racing rallies and topspin serves. Last month we started a brand new Table Tennis Club in Bermondsey, where we were joined by some neighbours who were beginners and some who looked like they could qualify for the GB National Team.
This week, we’re focusing on one of the many fantastic south London communities where we get to work: Streatham. Streatham is sometimes criticised for being inconvenient to get to, and is unvalued for its vibrant and diverse local scene and strong sense of community. So we’re taking the opportunity to turn the tables and celebrate the best bits of Streatham’s thriving neighbourhood.
We understand it can be daunting signing up to meet new people and try new things. So, we wanted to introduce you to Hannah, a younger neighbour we met last year, and share her experience of how she got on in her first few months!
Loneliness Week (13th-17th June) is next month. London is an amazing city, but living here can also leave people feeling anonymous, isolated and lonely. It can be difficult to acknowledge feeling this way, so we wanted to celebrate the bravery of our younger neighbours and the energy they put into supporting other south Londoners to build new connections.
