B&Q Holloway Road

Since 1986, the Soup Kitchen has offered dedicated support to homeless, elderly, lonely and vulnerable people in London. Our mission is to extend a compassionate hand to those in need, offering nutritious meals, everyday essentials and a welcoming sense of belonging to over 200 individuals each morning. In our commitment to holistic well-being, we pioneered Europe’s first on-site mental health drop-in centre within a soup kitchen, recognising and addressing the mental health needs of our guests. With the help of hundreds of dedicated volunteers each year, we aim to provide a safe and warm environment for every individual who walks through our doors. In early 2026, we expect to open our new restaurant in Primrose Hill, which combines the skills and experience of a highly accomplished Executive Chef with a team of recruits who have all experienced homelessness at some point in their lives. Our goal is to upskill our friends by providing them with structured employment, dedicated training and extra support to build long-term careers in the hospitality industry.

Charitable activities and fundraising for the benefit of the children attending Pakeman Primary School. This includes the operation of a Community Fridge to provide food to families.

We are a two form entry primary school and large nursery based in Finsbury Park, London. We want to make our school the best possible place it can be for our children. We want to decorate areas and develop our gardens and playgrounds. We want to develop more green spaces and get children involved in doing so. We also want to support our community and families through the cost of living crisis. We have a food bank within school which is very well utilised by many of our families.
