Lewisham Leisure Centres support Bank of Things
The Lewisham Leisure centres are now donation points for Bank of Things. The centres across Lewisham are working with Bank of Things to provide additional donation points for people to donate toiletries and other items such as revision guides for those in need across the borough of Lewisham
What does the Bank of Things do?
The Bank of Things is a Young Mayors Project working in partnership with Lewisham Local aimed at Young People aged 11 to 25 living in Lewisham. Former Young Mayors have used their budgets to develop the Bank of Things to address the issue of poverty and lack of resources for young people in the borough. We now supply everyday necessities to any young person facing hardship living in Lewisham.
