Community projects
Search for community-led projects that are either underway or are looking to get support from people in your area.
Find out what help people are looking for and how you can get involved and contact the project owner or sponsor. Even if you can't help out yourself you can easily share the projects with people in your own network that might be able to. It's also a great way of finding out what’s going on in your area.

Ealing Foodbank
We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry.

The foodbank is a project founded by local churches and community groups, working together towards stopping hunger in the London Borough of Ealing.
