The Bank of Things is a project developed for young people by young people. The Young Mayor of Lewisham and Young advisors teams came up with the idea after witnessing first hand how a lack of access to certain daily essentials was preventing young people from engaging fully in their day to day lives. 

 

Please help and donate to our service so we can help make a difference to young peoples lives in Lewisham.

Email hannah@lewishamlocal.com where you can donate as much as you would like to.
