South Kilburn Community Chest Application Guidance Workshop

Funded by Vistry as part of the redevelopment of Peel Precinct and NWCC, the South Kilburn Community Chest supports local projects that improve wellbeing, enhance green spaces, expand youth opportunities, amplify community voice, and promote financial resilience. If your organisation is active in or connected to South Kilburn, this session will help you understand exactly what the fund is looking for.

You’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions and get clarity on any part of the process before the strict deadline of Friday 5 June 2026.
