Carpenters Cafe
London, UK
Carpenters Café, started by some residents of Carpenters Estate and Trinity Chapel London. The project opened on 5th June 2007 initially as a feeding project targeting the homeless. However over the years, as a result of the current economic climate, we now support a wide variety of groups which include anyone needing a helping hand. We also receive and send referrals to other organizations to provide support.
Carpenters Café main objectives are:-
• To provide a dinning place that is warm, clean and friendly where people can come and sit, make friends and share a meal
• To give free of charge, hot or cold drinks, sandwiches, fruit and vegetables and food packs subject to availability.
• To share out household items, clothing, footwear, books, etc that have been donated to Carpenters Café for the benefit of the needy.
• To offer support and encouragement with access to computer facilities for job search and basic IT training.
• Volunteering services include distribution of advice and information leaflets on healthy eating and lifestyle, a foot pampering session on the last Tuesday of every month and art classes every other Tuesday.
The service is delivered by a strong team of volunteers who are reliable and supportive of the charitable aims of the organisation and who share a desire to offer help and assistance to people.
We are open to the public every Tuesday from 10am – 12pm.
