Liz and Lucy had recurring beans dreams last night after helping out at the foodbank.

"Lucy and I sorted through a lot of donations that had been given as part of the ‘Tin on a Wall’ initiative (one photo explains that). We sorted, shelved, stacked and never want to see a can of baked beans again!" - Liz

Congratulations to Lucy on her first foodbank visit.

East End Women
A project supporting women with skills and training, education, loneliness and domestic abuse recovery.

East End Women offers practical courses for women to build confidence and skills around DIY, sewing, pattern cutting and basic trades. We also deliver the Freedom Programme domestic abuse recovery course, helping women to better understand the roots of domestic abuse and build confidence to identify warning signs in the future. In addition to this, East End Women also offer social activities and drop-in sessions for women experiencing isolation to meet one another, make friends and build local networks.
