Story
For People, Not For Profit. Octavia Foundation support people affected by ill health, social isolation, low income or unemployment in central and west London by:
- caring for older people through befriending and social activities,
- supporting children and young people through inspirational projects and outreach work,
- helping people into work through volunteering and training.
The charity's vision is to build stronger, happier and healthier communities to help create an enriched life where we live.
Help to raise £3,000 in 2022 for Octavia
We hope to support Octavia's Befriending journey. This year, Octavia are opening up their in-person befriending opportunities and community spaces for individuals that have been closed during the pandemic. We hope the funds raised will contribute towards:
- Employment of specialists to help an unemployed resident complete job application forms and provide coaching and support for interviews
- To provide coffee, cake and transport for 10 older people to meet every week at their centres
