Full Plates: Nourishing Lives This Winter

Save the Date: Crowdfunder Launch from 17 October to 28 November

You have the chance to double your impact this winter by helping your community thrive through essential food support, welfare calls, and empowering budget cookery classes. For every donation up to £250, your contribution will be doubled! This means a £20 donation could become £40, and £100 turns into 200— making every pound you give go even further in supporting those in need.


How Your Support Helps

Community Made is a community-led initiative that supports Hackney residents facing financial hardships. With your generosity, we can continue these vital services over the winter months:

  • Cook 400 meals a week for individuals and families in urgent need of food support.
  • Make monthly welfare calls to provide a listening ear and referrals to financial and wellbeing services in Hackney.
  • Prepare and deliver 6,000 nutrient-dense and culturally appropriate meals via a carbon-neutral cycle courier service to Hackney residents.
  • Build a sense of community by engaging meal recipients in volunteering opportunities to help prepare meals.
  • Support participants ready to transition into our free community cookery classes, empowering them with budget-friendly cooking skills.

Be Part of Something Bigger

Your support does more than provide a meal—it helps build resilience, connection, and empowerment within the community. Together, we can make sure no one is left behind this winter.
