LBHF Christmas Day Lunch

Every year on Christmas Day, the Council have provided a festive feast for older people who would otherwise be all alone. As far as we know, Hammersmith & Fulham Council is unique in providing an event on Christmas Day itself – with an army of volunteers helping local isolated residents experience some Christmas cheer.

Obviously, the same event can’t be offered in 2020, but the Council is working with the Smile Brigade, and will be delivering a Christmas Meal, gifts and a friendly greeting to 600 local older people.

Applications for this year’s event are now closed, but donations and gifts are still welcome. Please click here
