15 years of Islington Giving! 🎉💜
This year marks 15 years since Islington Giving started changing lives, making a difference and spreading joy in Islington. Please donate what you can to support your amazing community!
“It’s not fair how unequal things are in our borough. Islington Giving makes us less divided." ~ Sarah Page
“This time four years ago, I was feeling lonely and isolated, struggling with the daily demands of caring for my son, who has autism. It was a difficult time, and I desperately needed somewhere I could go to talk about what I was going through. That’s when I found Mother2Mother, run by Islington Mind, one of the fantastic support groups funded by Islington Giving. The group became my weekly anchor. To have people who genuinely understood my situation, who were nurturing, caring and understanding – it felt like a family.
I’m now lucky enough to work for Islington Giving, so I see first-hand the difference funding makes to the community I have grown up in, and how so many people’s lives are transformed. But still, in our borough today, it’s so unfair how unequal things are.
Shockingly, one in five of our neighbours and 38% of Islington’s children live in poverty.
That’s why your donation today is so important. You can make a real difference to someone in your community who is struggling like I was.”
