JCT Community Management is a community interest company that provides services for the most needy in our community, whether that be vulnerable young people,the elderly, people in danger of getting mixed up in gangs or frustrated parents. We offer support, advice and signposting when we can't provide direct help through comprehensive partnerships with many organisations within our community, one being Waste not Want not Battersea a registered CIO charity who already supply hot food and shopping to the local community. During this uncertain period we have extended our reach by looking to support people who are in isolation or are just unable to get out of their home, with food drops, offers to pick up medication or just a friendly chat for those who feel isolated.

Open Kitchen is a foodbank set up by Christ Church Orpington in May 2020 in the wake of the pandemic. We collect surplus food from supermarkets and other food outlets, and make it freely available for our local community to collect - without vouchers. Currently we collect from about 25 suppliers and support approximately 100 families each week. Open Kitchen is run by a team of 30 volunteers who hate to see food waste and who want to support local families in need. We are always looking for new volunteers to join the team so that we can reach more in the community and save more food from being thrown away.
