We help you make a difference to London. Where it matters most.

London is the greatest city in the world. But it is a polarised city, of extreme inequality, of haves and have-nots. We believe in the vital role of local community organisations in making London a fairer place for everyone. We also believe in the generosity and solidarity of Londoners wanting to make a difference where they live and work. We support you to make that difference in London. Right here, where it matters most.
