Our mission is to help transform the lives of homeless and vulnerable people in LONDON - from ALL walks of life. WHATEVER your situation, income, race, ability, gender or sexuality - rich or poor - we are here to help build a community where all are welcome - to eat, drink, laugh.. and talk. A place where you can discover yourself - through supportive friendship and genuine community. We are a new Charity aiming to provide a safe and secure space for people to be together, create simple shared experiences, and to end the legacy of isolation in this post-Pandemic era. All are welcome. Please support us - as we try to build a meeting place - and sanctuary - for all. Rudi Director Open Souls Be Part of The Solution We are currently looking for a hall or church building to host once a weekly event - for six hours during the day on the same day of each week on an ongoing basis. If you are inspired by our mission, and can offer hall or church space, or would like to contribute financially - little or large - we would like to hear from you. Please get in touch with me, and I would love to hear your story and chat to you personally. We would like to provide both volunteers and community members with time to stop - and just be. A place to sit and relax - with hot foods and drink. An invite for ALL - for those who want to come - there is a place at our table.

The Dalgarno food bank is a weekly food distribution service providing both perishable and non-perishable foods for the local community. The service is free, but clients are asked to make a small donation for what they receive. Every small amount contributes to the successful running of the service. The food bank is for anyone who may be unemployed, receiving low income, or are struggling to cope with household bills. However, people need not restrict themselves to these reasons to use the food bank. If you would like to give food or any other donations to our food bank - donations are always well received and appreciated. Key details about the service are as follow: Tickets are given out in the reception area of the centre from 10am. The food bank distribution starts at 2pm. To keep the service Covid secure, food bank users do not enter the building, but volunteers bag up the food they have requested. Most people leave the food bank with two full plastic bags. Days/Time: Thursday (10 am for tickets ) Food bank distribution 2pm-3pm

Our project runs a weekly programme of events, classes, outings and celebrations enabling local older people to engage in lifelong learning projects and to socialise with others in a safe and trusted environment. We provide advice and information and signposting to other statutory/non-statutory and voluntary organsations in the locality. We also run a Befriending service where volunteer Befrienders visit older, frail and housebound individuals in their own homes.
