Outreach
One of the ways we are present is through a series of outreach events aimed at creating accessibility and building meaningful relationships with our community.

Temporary Accommodation Community Action Meetings
We are relaunching and expanding our temporary accommodation campaign and will be pushing against the housing and economic systems that force so many people to live in temporary accommodation. We do this by monthly action meetings, quarterly formal town hall meetings and influencing local, London and national politics.
In our action meetings we share food, experience and support.
Children and babies are welcome.
We provide food and drink for you and any babies/children.
We can cover travel costs so you can attend.
