Chandler Hall
London, UK
We are a Community Hall run by the Tenants and Residents Association of China Walk Estate, a council estate with many people on a low income. We run a food bank on Tuesday mornings to provide food for people on the estate and the surrounding community, including homeless people. The food bank is open to everyone. We also provide food when we can to elderly people who meet at the hall for coffee mornings, bingo and sewing groups. Currently we receive a delivery of food from City Harvest and we also collect food from Brixton Hub but our numbers are growing rapidly so we would love to increase our surplus food supply. We do not charge anything and are happy to help anyone in the community who needs help. We provide tea, coffee and snacks at our Tuesday morning foodbank as well as a warm place to sit. We are not a registered charity, just a Community Hall. We do not charge anything for our food and any food we would receive via Neighbourly would be free of charge. The hall offers many activities to the community including free of charge Aikido, Yoga for Mental Health and Chair Pilates. Coffee morning and bingo and sewing classes are provided for a very small charge. We also put on free parties for people in the community and run subsidised coach trips to the seaside and to Christmas Markets.
