This festive season, Islington Giving and Angel Islington BID have come together with a vital mission: to ensure no one in Angel feels alone this winter. With support from local businesses including the Business Design Centre, Angel Central Shopping Centre, and sponsor Tishman Speyer, the community is pulling together to fight loneliness and isolation, which disproportionately affect the most vulnerable residents in the borough.
With a suggested donation of £5 each (or £30 for a box of six), 100% of the proceeds of Angel Crackers will go toward funding incredible local organisations offering points of connection, support, and joy for vulnerable local residents, via Islington Giving.
