North Brixton Big Local Launch – Loughborough Estate

"Going to south end was the best part of my summer holiday! I havnt been to the sea in AGEAS and it was such a hoy say that I felt so good to cool down in the water. The trip was right before we went back to school, so it was great to take these memories into the classroom with me as start studying again. Thank you!"

"Joining the Create Your Space project was amazing! I never thought I'd get the chance to learn woodworking skills. Now I’ve got a handmade bench in my garden that I’m so proud of. I loved working alongside my neighbours, and we had such a laugh together. Thank you for making this happen!"

"Mudchute farm was so much fun! Seeing all the animals and nature. The pigs were my favourite. Loved spending the day with old friends and meeting new people."

"Cooking Together was such a great experience! I got to try new recipes and even shared a few family favourites. It’s been a long time since I’ve cooked with a big group, and I loved every minute of it. My kids can’t believe I can now make homemade bread!"

"The Take a Seat project has given me real confidence in my creative skills. Scorpio is a great tutor (once you get used to his sense of humour) and I’ve made so many new friends! My family love our new dining chairs, and I tell guests how I made them at the community trust. I think were making pillows next. I’m going to make one for the granddaughter for Christmas."

"Going to the Community Job Fair gave me the confidence I needed to start applying for local jobs. The support and advice were just what I needed, and I even landed my first interview within a week! It’s helped me feel more connected to the area and hopeful about the future."

"I loved the Art in the Park day! My kids had a blast, and I even got to try my hand at painting for the first time in years. The community feels closer, and it was such a refreshing break. We’re all looking forward to the next one!"
