We don't give out clothes in plastic bags - ever it is a RULE.

So - we need a constant supply of cloth tote bags.
Got any? Send them our way!🛍️

Imagine you were Lincoln City FC, then you managed to sign Ronaldo. What a game-changer!
This is how we felt as our new Director of Operations started this week.
And... BTW we are not finished hiring.
There is still time to become our new Admin and Referrals Co-ordinator.

More than 13,000 people were seen sleeping rough on the streets of London in 2024/25 - the highest on record.
This is almost 4x higher than 15 years ago, in 2008/2009, and a 10% increase in just 12 months.

The newham charity @magpieprojectuk.bsky.social have been campaigning for ages to stop families being housed without access to kitchens. Families are being forced to live in places with nowhere to cook suitable food for children, nowhere to make an iftar meal, nowhere to make baby formula.
When I did a story on conditions in migrant hotels, there was a woman who would have to wash the spicy sauce off the pasta - in the sink - because there was no meal suitable for her toddler. She felt like a bad mum who couldn’t feed her own child
