OUR VALUES

Think Big. Act Bigger.

Community

We are proud of our long-standing place in the Tottenham Community. Our Trustees are long standing residents and have served Tottenham as councillors and as leaders of local faith communities.

Support

Sometimes people find themselves unable to provide basic household items at difficult times. We offer support in the way of awards for essential household items up to a maximum award of £400. We also can provide specific help for young people from the “Mayor’s Fund”

We also provide support in the form of a pension for long standing residents who need that little bit extra.

Advice

When sometimes we are unable to provide support ourselves; we can advise people of other organisations they can approach.

Giving Hope

There are times in people’s lives when help can provide hope. We are proud of our long record in giving hope to those who find themselves in need.

CHANGING PEOPLES LIVES IN TOTTENHAM

Successful Grant Applicant

I found myself in a place where I was not able to cope anymore and finding it difficult to manage. My property had become overwhelming and this was impacting my mental health and wellbeing.

Successful Grant Applicant

The Tottenham charity fund helped me enormously! If I hadn’t used the funds to buy a computer I still wouldn’t have one today. It’s my first computer and while doing the computer course at the adult learning centre, Woodgreen, it allowed me to practise at home and study properly even in unsociable hours. This made me enjoy the course so much more than I would have. I’m extremely grateful for the grant and very lucky it came my way

Successful Grant Applicant

I feel like a new person, to have a bed after sleeping on the floor for over a month is uplifting. This is the happiest I have been in 10 Years.

Successful Grant Applicant

The grants provided from the Tottenham charity to individual residents as well as our supported housings schemes have made a huge difference. These grants have enabled those who are struggling and facing financial difficulties to take back control of their lives, give them a much needed boost as well as supporting people to remain living independently and to have a sense of self-worth.

Successful Grant Applicant

Following support and a grant from the Tottenham Charity, I was able to get my flat cleared and new furniture and items which have made me feel more positive about life, take some control back and enable me to see a better future for myself.

Successful Grant Applicant

I could not believe my luck when I got the grant to buy a new bed and a cooker I had been desperate to replace them for years.
