We’re overwhelmed to have received over 200 donations to our Christmas and Winter Crowdfunding campaign, with donations exceeding £31,000!
Thanks to everybody who has donated – every donation will go towards a Christmas gift for 1,600 young people and local charities supporting residents facing homelessness, food poverty, vulnerable families and loneliness.
We know that this is a tough time for many, but if you’re able to make a small donation this would help in our efforts to support as many vulnerable people as possible this winter.

If you are experiencing coronavirus symptoms at the moment, you must stay at home and arrange a test.
We have two walk-in sites at Stanley Road car park, Leyton and Linford Road car park, Walthamstow.
These sites are now open from 7am - 9pm every day and you can attend without pre-booking.
We also have a drive-in site located at The Score Card car park in Leyton which is open every three days, but you will need to call 119 or book online for this site.
Please make sure you only attend for a test if you have symptoms.
As we move into Tier 3, we know how challenging this will be for our local economy.
To support you, we have extended the deadline for applications for the Additional Restrictions Discretionary Grant to Wednesday 23 December 2020.
This grant is available for:

- businesses in the supply chains (i.e. wholesalers, manufacturers, business services)
- businesses that were closed through November
- businesses that were required to close but are not liable for business rates
Local Restrictions Support Grants of up to £3,000 are also available.
These are mainly for businesses legally required to close throughout November - including non-essential retail, leisure, personal care, sports facilities and hospitality.
Our teams are working hard to deliver services to our residents.
