This is a brilliant time to get involved in the area. With preparations for the London Olympics getting underway, it’s a really exciting time of possibilities and opportunities for making a difference.

St Katharine and Shadwell Trust

We are a Community Foundation, raising funds and awarding grants to run and support a wide range of projects in East London. We have been actively working in Tower Hamlets for 18 years and are extending our work into Hackney, Newham and the City of London.

Our knowledge of the area and the relationships we have developed enable us to support and sustain positive change. Our aim is to ensure that the ideas and aspirations of local people for improving their area can be realised. Examples of the projects we support, can be found in our Grants section.
