S.M.I.L.E LONDON & Essex, a resilient charity based in Romford, tirelessly supports thousands of low-income families by providing essential daily necessities like free or low-cost food, clothing, toiletries, and homeware. Additionally, we distribute over 2000 Christmas presents and Easter eggs to children residing in homeless hostels across London and Essex each year.

Regrettably, we've encountered a significant setback this week as our landlord has issued an eviction notice for our current hub. Given the exorbitant prices of high street properties, finding an affordable site to sustain our vital charity has proven challenging. As a community-focused organization, we're reaching out to our supporters for assistance in raising funds to cover the rent for a new location.

Any surplus funds raised will be allocated towards utility costs and other essential expenses.

We are hopeful to get some match donations from thus Fundraiser too.
