Bounce Back Clubs
London, England, United Kingdom
Aim
To help children in one of the most deprived areas of London, by helping to fund after school clubs to improve children's life chances
Tower Hamlets has the highest rate of child poverty in London. It is the second most deprived borough in London and is the third most deprived borough nationally.
Particular issues that Tower Hamlets faces include high levels of unemployment, disadvantage in income, health, housing and crime as well as recording one of the highest population densities in London.
Poplar is one of the most deprived areas within Tower Hamlets.
The Poplar Partnership is small charity set up to try and tackle these problems at their root, by helping fund and support early intervention projects within our community.
Building on the work of our Food Hubs, our new Bounce Back Clubs focus on helping children bounce back from the pandemic by offering sport clubs and trips to support the most vulnerable, working alongside 2 Bygrove & Stebon Primary schools, we have been working with The Mayor of London's Fund and Tower Hamlets local authority to support over 350+ of the most vulnerable families in our community, by delivering sports and activities to children.
