Rebuilding Shaftesbury Hall , 30 January 2017

Story

Bowes Park is on the verge of having an amazing new community space. 

North London Samaritans are through to the third and final stage of a Big Lottery grant application to redevelop Shaftesbury Hall on Herbert Road, London, N11. 

If successful, the £500,000 grant will enable the complete redevelopment of Shaftesbury Hall - known locally as the 'Tin Tabernacle' - providing new workspaces for the North London Samaritans, and a hall for the whole community to use.

However, to secure the Big Lottery grant, the local community still needs to raise £80,000. This is where you can help. 

To support the fundraising campaign please donate.

North London Samaritans have been helping people for over 40 years through our trained volunteer listeners who day and night answer calls for help from people in distress and despair.


Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails.
