We continue to receive generous donations to our Fundraising Appeal both from many of the Churches in Kingston and from individuals. The money has been used to help our work with the homeless in Kingston and to contribute to our general tenants’ welfare fund. For example, we spent £6,500 installing a much-needed new central heating system for the single homeless project which we run jointly with Kingston Churches Action on Homeless (KCAH). And in 2005 we launched a scheme to help our older and disabled tenants with decorations to their homes (all our tenants are normally responsible for their own internal decorations).
There are many more opportunities like this to help our work. For example, the fund helped us launch this updated website in 2006 to allow tenants to find out more easily about our work and plans for the future, to report repairs online, to let us know their views and so forth.
So thanks to all the churches and individuals who have given so generously to date – but if you would like to contribute to our continuing Fundraising Appeal please complete the yellow slip enclosed with this Annual Report, or contact us directly at our offices.
