Supporting People And Community Empowerment
Our Story
The SPACE is a community organization that aims to improve the health and wellbeing of people in particular those who are still recovering from the mental health impact of the Grenfell Tower fire via peer support, access to therapy and advocating. We also support vulnerable people and local families hit by the cost-of-living crisis through a food and clothes bank as well as providing baby essentials to families facing a crisis.
Established in the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower tragedy, The SPACE empowers local communities to thrive and build a better future for them and their children. Our services cover Kensington, Chelsea, Brent and Hammersmith area while creating, collaborating, and connecting people with our activities. The SPACE operates on a new model of service delivery which is responsive and adapt to the changing needs in local communities.
The SPACE has engaged with over 5000 people including many children who come from disadvantaged backgrounds. We serve an average of 500 people per week providing them with practical support and creating opportunities for people to move on to long-term employment
The SPACE has successfully organised and run many events. These include health and wellness fairs, school uniform and clothing distribution, community celebrations inlcuding complementary therapies, children’s coaching sessions, advice surgeries, and more
We will always be doing our best to support the most vulnerable in our society.
The team is made up of lots of inspirational and selfless people. The services are run by the community for the community and all their volunteers will go the extra mile to help.
As the cost of living is starting to have a severe impact, we still need help to continue delivering our services to meet the increasing demand.
The Grenfell Foundation works to support the bereaved, survivors and local community in their search for truth, Justice and change following the Grenfell Tower Fire. They work with Grenfell United on their ongoing campaigns, as well as supporting projects in the areas of wellbeing, Memorial and awareness in North Kensington. There is still a lot to do to ensure that change is achieved so we need your help to continue our vital work.
The SPACE and the community we serve really appreciate any donations you are able to make. Help us to continue to create the change for our communities and future generations!
Thank you
