Charity overview

Activities - how the charity spends its money

The Railside Community Garden CIO was set by local residents in Streatham SW16 in 2018 to co-ordinate the use of some unused land next to the railway, and turn it into a Community Garden. During 2019 and 2020 the RCG has successfully landscaped the area, built planters, grown a wide variety of veg, started a regular supply to a foodbank, and is establishing itself as a community asset.
