The week following HubFest is normally our chance to relive the magic, breathe just a little...and share the lovely images and videos that have come our way.

That was all cast aside on Tuesday morning when we received notice that access to the rear of Place Ladywell would come to an end by tomorrow.

With our anticipated 3 week transition to our expanded side area now condensed to ~5.5 days (with two of those committed to delivering our core services), we were feeling the heat ♨️

Thanks to the *breathtaking* response from so many within our team, we have managed to pull up and transfer 2,000 bricks, a few tonnes of gravel, 3 *enormous* steel shelters, along with all of our previous structures.

It has required incredible amounts of effort, ingenuity and equipment (including angle grinders, socket sets, shovels, crowbars, wheelbarrows, pallets from The Felix Project and more besides). Videos in the comments section 🎥👇

To the 40+ volunteers that have contributed so mightily and without hesitation, thank you for making this absurd ambition a reality. One which helps Mother Nature breathe a little easier, and ensures we can keep on delivering all services, fully 🚀

To Rakesh and all those at Higgins PLC , thank you for working with us so closely, and supporting us so fully. We feel very lucky to have you as neighbours 🫶

Fundraising in support of Londoners facing hardship. Kids go free ✨

01/05/2026

If you've been following us for a while, then you'll probably be aware that the last year has been a pretty unique one in our history.

Beginning in May 2025, our inaugral HubFest saw over 900 amazing people join us for one of the biggest events in the Fox and Firkin's history. It was organised under a cloud of uncertainty, with our expectation being that we would likely close shortly thereafter at the end of June, 2025.

Thanks to enormous political support from across Lewisham Council, our expected final farewell ultimately became a day of true celebration. Our time at Place Ladywell having been extended until June, 2026, and then again recently through to 2027.

Thanks to Mayor of Lewisham, Brenda Dacres OBE's, decision to make us her charity of the year for 25/26, our once intensely support focussed efforts broadened to a point we could never have imagined.

During this year, we have represented Lewisham at the New Year's Day LondonParade, passing over 800,000 people along the way. We launched our first Secret Postcard Auction that saw us raise over £5,000, showcasing the most beautiful art to over 250 attendees at Beckenham Place Mansion.

We were so proud to watch as five council employees successfully completed the TCS London Marathon on our behalf, raising over £7,000 in the process (more to come on that). There's also been a sold-out winter HubFest, a wonderful quiz night at Catford House, more than a dozen community fairs, destasher events, the mayor's Christmas carol service in New Cross, a Black History Month fundraiser in the council chambers...and so much more besides!

It's been a truly breathless year, held together on the events side by Alexia (our events manager, and sister of the hub's founder) in partnership with our extraordinary events and fundraising team. And on the service delivery side, our board of trustees, team leaders and our *truly* incredible and unhesitating volunteers have helped deliver support to more first time visitors than at any point in our history.

Due to the sheer volume of commitments, it hasn't been possible to post as regularly about the enormous impact of your donations. And yet, week after week, you have continued to give in extraordinary breadth and volumes.

Despite all of the time that has passed since we first opened our doors in June, 2020, you still take our breath away, every day, through your overwhelming, sustained and selfless generosity. Thank you for continuing to be there for us, and for all those we endeavour to support 💞

If you're able to join us, we'd LOVE to see you next Sunday 🤞⬆️

🌿🍕 OUR FRIENDS AT THE HOMESTEAD CAFE ARE UP FOR A SUSTAINABILITY AWARD! 🍕🌿
~ Help get our 1% for the Planet partners to the top 🏆 ~

So much of what we do is made possible by a big collective of hidden heroes. The kind who give quietly in so many different ways, and in so doing give us the security to be ambitious. It is with *such* pleasure that we can take a moment to champion one of our most steadfast and impactful, The Homestead Cafe in Beckenham Place Park, who are finalists in The London Coffee Festival ✨

✅ To vote, please visit;
https://awards.londoncoffeefestival.com/live/en/page/voting
✅ Category; 'Best sustainable coffee shop'
⚠️ Deadline: Midnight, 8th April

We are forever amazed by the sustained funding we receive as part of their '1% for the Planet' commitment (where they commit to giving 1% of their annual sales - not profit - to causes like ours). A platform we share with Friends of the Earth and Tree Aid. Beyond that core funding is the humanity that is unrelentingly extended our way (touched upon in the attached pictures). All made possible by a business that has sustainability at its core.

So please, take a moment & give them your vote (www.tinyurl.com/vote-thc). And when you've done that, why not go and grab the tastiest pizza & a coffee 💕
