About this Event
Dear Partner,
There is an even greater need to connect this winter to support residents facing increasing challenges.
Our local CVS organisations and Tower Hamlets Together partners, are working to reduce social isolation, through longstanding work, with support of Tower Hamlets Loneliness Taskforce Grants and other resources.
Tower Hamlets Connection Network is supporting local organisations to work together to share ideas, information and access to resources to deliver a stronger local response to loneliness and isolation, affecting our most marginalised residents.
Please join us at our next Connection Network Event in person on Monday 12th December, from 9.30 to 1.00 at Spotlight Youth Centre (30 Hay Currie Street, London, E14 6GN).
