Community Open Day Friday 23rd September 2022

We are hosting a Community Open Day alongside our partners CGL (Alcohol Service) and Advance (Women’s Service) on Friday 23rd September at Sands End Arts & Community Centre.

We will be starting at 1pm, there will be activities for young children, light refreshments and a free raffle to win a hamper packed with goodies!

The aim of the event is to showcase services in the local borough so that residents can be more informed on what’s on offer in their local community. There will be invaluable information on the cost of living provided by the local CAB. Hammersmith & Fulham Foodbank,  Green Doctor and SASH will be in attendance on the day to provide the local residents with information about their services and how to access.
