This page is for Dons Local Action Group. In 2020, out of all the uncertainty and upheaval came the Dons Local Action Group, with the simple aim to help those in need in our local communities. We began providing food packages to those who were suddenly shielding, then refurbishing laptops for kids with no access to online learning, DLAG soon went on to become the go-to for helping those in poverty, in need of food, furniture, household equipment, digital devices and more across the boroughs of Merton, Wandsworth and Kingston.
