The eagle-eyed among you may have spotted in this week's Islington Tribune that North London Cares was recently awarded a major grant to help us develop our work...

The grant of £9,000 per year, over each of the next three years, was made by theBulldog Trust/Golden Bottle initiative, and will make a big difference to our development.

It's our first really long term investment and will be used to train many of our most active volunteers to deliver NLC activities autonomously, through a tiered delivery model. That will help double our output, create a broader community of participation, and support even more older people in Camden and Islington over time.

We were proud to be one of only 7 groups that secured funding from this round of investment, out of 120 that applied from all across the UK.

That's a strong endorsement of our work from two major national trusts and will help us involve even more volunteers to do even more good work over the coming months and years.

We'll be releasing more information on how you can get involved in the special scheme in September. In the meantime, sign up using the form on the right to get involved in our Summer Sessions in Camden or our ongoing work in Islington...
