History of Soup4Lunch

The Enterprise started activities through a partnership with Hammersmith Community Garden Association and registered as a Company Limited by Guaranty in December 2014.  Support came from the People’s Health Trust, School for Social Entrepreneurs, UNLTD, Hammersmith & Fulham Council, Hammersmith United Charities, The Big Local W12, and Cultivate London, among others.  Most recently we began a very successful partnership with Groundwork. Our programmes run across H&F and Hounslow, and we strive to stay small and local.

• S4L has operated projects in sheltered housing in H&F since 2012:
• Sycamore House & John Betts House, Hammersmith United Charities
• Rowberry Close, Askham Court and other sheltered Housing Schemes across Hammersmith and Fulham
• Trillington House, Baths Court, Park Court and other Notting Hill Housing Genesis properties
• Salopian Garden, Isleworth, Hounslow in partnership with Cultivate London

S4L conducted weekly gardening, outdoor cooking and creative sessions fresh produce from the kitchen garden community events for the Cultivate London AGMs.  The weekly participants came from local community centre groups and sheltered housing.  Our Artist in the Garden, Emily Fuller and Older People’s art teacher Kathy Barker conducted creative sessions.
