Coin Street’s community work is vital, connecting people in Waterloo and North Southwark, improving health and wellbeing, and quality of life. Without donors like you, this work would not be possible.

Thank you for your generous donation.

Coin Street is an integral part of the community – we spend over 24,226 hours with local people each year!

Our youth and community team run weekly sports, fitness, and wellbeing activities, plus trips and events across the year. They are experienced and dedicated, providing extra care and support for more vulnerable participants, such as those with additional needs and disabilities.

Youth and community sessions are free to attend. For under 18s, they include youth gym, Young Leaders, youth night, weekend football, tutoring and mentoring, girls only classes, Duke of Edinburgh awards, school holiday camps and more. For adults and older people, they include Feel Good Saturdays, Gym ‘n’ Juice, dance classes, community singing, Gentle Gardening, art group, coffee mornings and more.

We work with the Colombo Centre team, in Southwark, where most of Coin Street's activities are held, to ensure that those who benefit the most, receive free gym memberships.

At least once a year, we host a Community Day at the Coin Street neighbourhood centre. Attendees enjoy food, music, dancing, talks, holistic therapies, children’s activities, workshop, as well as stalls ran by local makers and businesses. Our annual Young At Heart winter and summer parties for older adults are a big hit and well attended.

Many in our community continue to be impacted by the high cost of living. As well as providing healthy refreshments in sessions, our youth and community workers arrange emergency food packages, and essential items to those in need.

Thank you for supporting this work, and keeping our community connected, active and well, no matter their income, age, or ability.
