Happy New Year from all of us at Islington Giving! We hope you’ve had an enjoyable, restful break and are stepping into 2026 with renewed energy for all the exciting things to come.As we reflect on the past few weeks, there’s one thing we keep coming back to: the power of community. And thanks to the kindness and generosity of our supporters, partners and community, together we raised an incredible £34,487 of our £40,000 target for our Islington Winter Appeal. That’s an incredible achievement, and one we’re so proud to have reached with you!Because of you, vital grassroots projects across Islington can continue to offer:
- Connection for people facing isolation
- Care for those navigating difficult times
- Practical support for neighbours who need it most
This is what Islington coming together looks like – and it truly makes a difference. Read more about some of the incredible local projects and people your support has helped.
What kind of Islington would you love to see in 2026?
As we begin the new year, if you’re feeling able to give back, it’s not too late to donate. Even a small gift can help sustain this work and is a powerful way to start 2026 by supporting your community.We’d love you to watch this inspiring short message from our Mayor of Islington, Cllr Jason Jackson, reflecting on the importance of community and what we can achieve together.
We’re now about £5,000 away from reaching our £40,000 Winter Appeal goal. Could you make a small gift before the year ends and ensure more neighbours have somewhere to turn this winter? 100% of your donation will support vital community projects offering connection, care and support to our neighbours in need.
Thank you again for being part of our incredible community and helping to make Islington stronger, healthier and more connected.
