B&Q Roneo Corner

Supporting low income families living in crisis in London and Essex. Throughout the year we provide essential support through our clothing bank and food pantry for families living in financial crisis due to no fault of their own. In addition to our referred clients we also work with over 26 homeless families hostels throughout Essex and the capital to reduce social isolate and increase wellbeing. In 2021 we set up a community food store onsite for our clients who are in food poverty to provide a full wrap around support service which will result in a reduction in food insecurity in young people. We see at least 30 families each day it is open. In addition to our daily support we run targeted appeals to ensure no child is left behind their better off peers. This includes providing free school uniform, Easter Treats, hosting a free prom dress boutique and our busiest project- our Christmas shoe Box appeal which see over 2000 local children receive a box of presents from Santa's each year.
