Our objectives:
The reduction of poverty and financial hardship. The promotion and advancement of health, wellbeing and financially stable living to improve the lives of families and their communities 

Advancing the knowledge, training, education and skills of the communities in subjects relating to financial education, healthy living, growing and cultivation, entrepreneurial development and any other activity that will support the development of the community.


Families struggle with finances for many reasons; many parents are not feeding themselves in order to feed their children. Breadline London believes all children and their families should be well nourished and protected from hunger, poor nutrition and a lack of opportunity.

A key component of Breadline London’s service is to provide support, knowledge and identify opportunities for families. Our approach enables families to strengthen their own skills and capabilities, providing them a vital source of sustained support. 

Given the difficult social and economic forces that are currently affecting families across the country, Breadline London will continue to steadfastly support families who find themselves in vulnerable situationsand support them on their journey, helping them to develop a sense of empowerment, resilience and independence

We aim to support families to raise themselves out of the cycle of poverty and hardship to develop a more manageable and sustainable lifestyle.
Through Budgeting, Healthy eating, financial education and the creation of Micro-business, families can start to develop their own opportunities.

Examples of financial workshops:
Examples of healthy eating workshops:
Breadline London are looking for supporters to help build and develop the network
to offer support and encouragement to more families in our community.
