Hackney Giving has a number of funders and one of our longest supporters is City Bridge Foundation, who were formerly known as City Bridge Trust.
Supporting residents over the summer and beyond The increased cost of living is continuing to have an impact on Hackney’s communities and by working in partnership with the Council, we have been able to distribute a further £75,000 to help.
Thanks to generous donations from businesses and individuals, Hackney Giving was able to make four grants this winter to help residents to deal with the increased cost of living.
Help Turkish, Kurdish and Syrian people in Hackney Many Turkish, Kurdish and Syrian people who live in Hackney have been directly affected by the recent earthquake.
The cost of living in the UK is continuing to increase, and with it, financial difficulties for many people.
The rising cost of living is an increasing concern for people across the country.
