Final Farewell
Published on March 31, 2024 by Tara
Dear Friends and supporters,
We have made the very difficult decision to close the SE16 Community Fund. March has been our final month in operation.
We wanted to thank you all again for your support over the past 3 ½ years. We are very proud to have distributed over £15,000 to our neighbours in SE16 during this time.
Our social media and email accounts will not be monitored. We have some links to share with those in SE16 who may require further support. These are:
