The main way we fund projects is through our charitable fund called the Nine Elms Community Foundation. Through this we support local events and projects that connect existing and new communities.

These projects range from

running the Nine Elms community website

hosting Friends of Nine Elms Parks

offering Sparks Clubs for children

creating community meetups through The Living Room

Our Goals

We want to create opportunities for adults and children to experience growth, fulfilment and faith through friendship and learning

Our events have four goals:

  • to create welcoming, safe and interesting spaces for people to flourish

  • to support the personal growth and learning of each individual

  • to promote cultural experiences through Music Art and Drama

  • offer opportunities for meetups and friendships to develop

Is this something you can invest in?

If you want to invest in the local area there are two ways to do it through the Nine Elms Community Foundation.

The first is to Volunteer. Why not help on one of our projects - from helping with websites, news and information, or helping at an event for Friends of Nine Elms Parks, or helping children with arts and crafts and music.

The second way you can invest is to contribute financially to community projects in Nine Elms. Here are some typical costs.

It costs £50 to cover teaching, materials and food for one child in an afterschool club for one term, or £150 a year

It costs £60 a week or £240 a month to run the community website www.nineelms.org

Here are the essentials about giving to the Foundation:

  • Every financial gift is ringfenced for the direct benefit of the project you support.

  • Gift Aid can be claimed to increase the effectiveness of your gift.

  • Every donation is made and audited under Charity Commission guidelines
