How you can support NW5
There are many way in which you can support our work, here are a few suggestions below. We gratefully accept monetary donations!
How we are funded
The NW5 Community Play Project is a small, independent, community-run charity. We recently came to the end of our three year funding with The National Big Lottery and currently are seeking to find core funding to continue delivering our services.
The project is looking for funders and sponsors. If anyone specialises in fundraising or writing grant applications please do contact our manager Sharley directly at the project.
We have recently been successful in securing Camden Council funding however this does not fully cover our operating costs and we are not part of a larger charity.
We also generate some income from, the hiring out of our building, local fundraising and events.
The majority of our income comes from grants and donations, we deliver all our services for free to children, young people and families.
DONATE ONLINE NOW
We have an online donation facility set up with our partner PayPal. You can donate via this website right now.
DONATE BY CHEQUE
Please make cheques payable to the NW5 Community Play Project and post to the Chair of the Trustees, NW5 Project, The Playhut, Islip Street, Kentish Town, NW5 2TU. Please enclose your name and address so that we can acknowledge your donation.
DONATE IN CASH
Cash donations are always very welcome at the Project any weekday between 3 pm and 6 pm. Every cash donation is recorded and a receipt issued.
DIRECT DEBIT OR STANDING ORDER
One of the best ways to donate to the NW5 Project is through a monthly or annual standing order. Even just £5 a month can make a considerable difference to our work. All money received through regular donations is used to help provide services for children and young people in the local community. If you would like to make a regular donation please contact the project and ask to speak with the manager.
SPONSORSHIP
If you are a local company or organisation please consider sponsoring particular activities, events, the purchases of equipment and materials or even specialist workers. There are many, many ways in which sponsorship could be very helpful to the present work of the Project and the development of new services or activities. If you would like to discuss becoming a sponsor, please contact the project manager.
LEGACY
Consider including the NW5 Project in your will. This way you can ensure children in Kentish Town continue to benefit from your generosity even after your passing. You can specify a particular sum or item of value, or bequeath a proportion of your estate. We have prepared a basic information sheet on the options for legacies and a suggested wording to include in the will or codicil. If you would like a copy of this please telephone or email us.
