Supporting Islington residents

We have supported Islington residents throughout the Coronavirus pandemic. Many people have been adversely affected during the crisis - physically, financially, socially and emotionally. We provide services that meet the real needs of local people. We help them to fund solutions to the issues they are facing and empower them to set and reach new goals.

We employ a team of around 20 people. Many of our staff are from the Islington communities that we work with. We are a living wage employer.

Volunteer for us

After the Covid-19 Pandemic started in 2020 Help on Your Doorstep recruited over 60 volunteers to help with urgent essential deliveries of food and befriending people who were isolated due to shielding, self isolation and lockdown. These volunteers made a real difference to people’s lives - whether they supported one person or many. Now we are moving to a new phase, needs are changing and we need new volunteers.
